Lightning Alerts helps you track real ground-reaching lightning strikes on a live map.
Unlike noisy storm maps that fill the screen with cloud flashes, Lightning Alerts uses enterprise-grade lightning data focused on ground strikes, so you can see the activity that matters before outdoor plans.
Use it before travel, golf, hiking, boating, surfing, fishing, open-water activities, or daily weather checks. See recent strikes, closest-strike distance, strike age, intensity, and strike type. Save places you care about and choose when alerts should notify you.
Key features:
- Live map of ground-reaching lightning strikes
- Nearby lightning alerts for saved places
- Closest-strike distance and activity updates
- Strike details with age, intensity, type, and direction
- Clear settings for alerts, ads, privacy, and analytics
- Optional Pro subscription that removes ads
Lightning Alerts is a weather awareness tool, not an emergency warning system. Always follow official weather alerts, local rules, and venue safety guidance.
