Lightning Detection - Newb Question

Thanks for these reports, folks. We’ve confirmed those are definitely false strikes. As others have pointed out, the lightning sensor is prone to false strikes from nearby electrical interference - so that’s definitely something to check out.

However, our lightning QC system would normally have suppressed those false strikes - and we’re looking into why that didn’t happen in your case. It may be related to yesterday’s hiccup, though the timing doesn’t line up, so it’s probably unrelated. Either way, we’re looking into it. Stay tuned.
