Lightning Prediction
Plan Ahead For Approaching Lightning with Site Specific
Lightning Alerts
WDT's exclusive Lightning Prediction Algorithm (LPA) determines
where high lightning threats will be in the next 60 minutes. LPA
looks at real time lightning strikes, lightning strike density
areas, and storm cell movements to create an accurate moderate and
high threat forecast area. If your site-specific locations fall
within this lightning threat area, a lightning alert will be issued
for that location. These predicted lightning threat areas will also
be displayed graphically on your custom maps. The LPA is 96%
accurate out to 60 minutes and 99% accurate out to 10 minutes.
