PRIVACY FIRST No ads. No cross-app tracking. Your location is used to calculate distance and power the alerts you choose.

Lightning detection has inherent latency and location uncertainty. Distances are approximate. StrikeCast is informational and is not a substitute for official weather warnings or emergency guidance.
