How close is the lightning?
StrikeCast: Lightning Tracker puts the answer front and center. See the approximate distance to the nearest detected strike in miles/km, follow activity on a clean live map, and set alerts for the places you care about.
DISTANCE AT A GLANCE

• View distance in miles or kilometers

ALERTS FOR PLACES THAT MATTER
Save a location and choose an alert radius. StrikeCast can notify you when lightning is detected nearby, even when you are somewhere else. Monitor home, work, school, or any place you want to keep an eye on.
CALM, CLEAR DESIGN
No noisy dashboard and no ad clutter. When the area is quiet, StrikeCast says so. When lightning is nearby, the distance stays easy to find.
UPGRADE TO PRO
• Real-time strike data with no added free-tier delay
• Approaching and moving-away trends
• More saved locations and flexible alert radii
• Animated weather radar
• 12-hour thunderstorm forecast

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.
