    Questions

    What does this storm tracker show?

    Live National Weather Service tornado and severe thunderstorm watches and warnings, plus NOAA Storm Prediction Center hail, damaging-wind and tornado reports — nationally, by state and for each city we track.

    Is this a live lightning strike map?

    No. Real-time strike data comes from commercial detection networks. Our city pages use official storm reports and forecast thunderstorm risk; the Lightning Tracker app shows storm risk and alerts for your location. See how lightning maps work.

    How often is the data updated?

    Alerts and the 48-hour outlook load live when you open a page. Storm-report history is refreshed every day from the Storm Prediction Center.
