Think it must be everyone's favorite. There is nothing else that comes
close to it.

Available on Android too.


I have had it open (the app) all evening on my S4 mini device :-)

Yes it's a brilliant site. Thunderstorms have been sitting just west of
Brest for some considerable time now, with little movement. There are now
some signs of them edging NNE.


It's now a young MCS with a developing circular cloud shield. The situation
is de-stabilising all the time as the upper trough overruns the high theta-w
plume. Blitzortnung is going ballistic now with new cells popping up to NE
of Brest MCS and elsewhere. It's promising to be a memorable night, but I'll
be powering down my PC as soon as the strikes get within 30km.
