Default Meteorologica lightning detection accuracy?

Does anyone know just how accurate the data on this page is? I'm in the East


It seems variable to me. It was spot-on on Wednesday, the thunderstorm
arrived here just when that page said it would. But a couple of weeks
ago, we were in the middle of a storm which the page was showing about
100 miles away. But it had got the direction from Blackpool correct, so
rather like your example here.
