      Hello — I’ve noticed lately that the radar map doesn’t reflect my experience of actually lightning. And right now I can see on lightningmaps.org that a lot more lightning is happening than shows on the Windy app.

      Can you look into this please.

          @jasons47 Hello, the service, you shared, uses Blitzortung as a source for this data. We used this source as well, but they used to have any false data so we moved to Nowcast and their LINET system.

            @Suty I see. And would there be a difference from US lightning detection because I notice a lot more lightning action on the radar in the US (could be a reflection of more actual lightning strikes I guess)?
