Lightning strike map

I noticed the Met Office now has a lightning strike map on its site. I don't recall seeing it in the past so assume it's fairly new. Anyway, worth a look if it's thundery in your area.

Lightning strikes - Met Office

Our lightning map shows where and when lightning has struck in the last 24 hours.

I have just used it.
It confirmed that the flashes and bangs outside were indeed lightning strikes!

That's cool. It's world wide, and currently kicking right off across the Caribbean and southern US.
