  Any source for lightning strikes?
Posted by: Johnlarry - 2019-04-15, 18:07 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (8)

I have a dog that is very afraid of thunder. So much so that she starts getting anxious when she see's just the flash of light from a lightning strike, even if we never even hear the thunder or it's very faint. Links deleted.


Given this, I would like to setup an automation that will turn on the lights in the room she sleeps in at night if there is a lightning strike within X miles, then turns them off if there isn't another strike within a certain time frame. This will at least ease and/or delay her anxiety when storms come at night, since she will be less likely to see the light from the lightning (blinds on the window will be closed already).
I have all the hardware to do this; I use SmartThings, and the lights are on a zwave switch. The part I'm having the most trouble with is a data source for the lightning strikes. Is there a website or RSS feed that I could tap into with IFTTT or soemthing?

  Incredible map displays every lightning strike on Earth, in real-time as it happens
Posted by: Johnlarry - 2019-04-13, 06:23 - Forum: Hardware, Software, Lightning Physics - Replies (1)

Most likely the site is drawing the lines in real time ovo.fyi/lorem-ipsumovo.fyi/emp-mailovo.fyi/10-minute-mail client-side, which can takes more processing power and can cause lag, making it no longer show real-time. Though that's all just an assumption on my part.

  Station List not showing any United Kingdom stations
Posted by: dgoadby - 2019-04-08, 20:07 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (2)

For over a week now the Station List shows nothing when "United Kingdom" is selected. However, UK stations do show if "Europe" is selected.

  ELI5: How do lightning tracker websites work?
Posted by: Johnlarry - 2019-04-06, 11:52 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (2)

Sitting on the toilet just now during a thunderstorm and a huge bolt of lightning flashed outside that must have been 2-3 miles away. I was watching the live lightning ( links removed by admin) map on LightningMaps.org and the flash that just saw was on my live map within 10 seconds! How is it possible to track the sky on a global scale like that?

  System blue for sale - argentina only
Posted by: alexbsas - 2019-03-21, 01:56 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (2)

Hello, I have a system blue board in Buenos Aires. I installed it and it works but couldn't find the time to optimize the antenna and the reception as I live in a crowded area with quite a bit of noise electrical noise. I'll be glad to sell the board to another user in Argentina since there are no other stations here I believe. Its sold at cost price, 195 Euro. You'll save yourself the burden of importing it and I'll include the gps antenna as a gift.
