Popis: The time structure of neutron count rate enhancement during thunderstorm is studied. The enhancements take place during the time of atmospheric discharge. Significant part of neutrons is emitted in short bursts (200–400 μs). Sometimes the emission is well correlated over the space scale 1 km. Short burst width enables us to suppose that neutrons are generated mainly in a dense medium (probably soil).
