Its not live as in video of flash bangs, just maps showing strikes where they occured. Best thing for watching lightning is a storm and a window, preferably one in a pub! :lol:

We are in the middle of a thunderstorm at the moment. As well as seeing it live out of the window. I am watching it here. http://www.upminsterweather.co.uk/test/ll.htm It is quite interesting when you select run loop. What else do you do on a wet Sunday afternoon?  

The site just displays strikes on a map. Think about it, you'd need a camera everywhere to record lightning to watch as you watch it out yer window...

The map thingy is quite interesting I suppose as it gives data, but not as much fun as a storm...
