Hi, Yea, I have a friend here in Florida who has been struck 5 times. He is like a lightening magnet! When a thunder storm is near, he does not stay near us if we are outside. Lightening here is a real problem that we all take seriously. That is why it is so important to be able to get any kind of warning if there is a lightening strike anywhere within say 30 miles or so. These storms can move 40 to 50 MPH so it does not take long till it is on us. Our public schools are told that if there is one lightening flash within 30 miles, they must hold the students inside for an additional 30 minutes till they can be dismissed or go outside. We need apps that will give us any advanced warning. -Steve

Some guy in the states had seemingly been hit 7 times And if a storm is rolling in from somewhere and you can hear the thunder then the lightneing is going to be on you quicker than you can move. Remember that lightening is the fastest thing we have on earth Being light and electricity The noise is the sound barrier being broken -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Jewel Sent: Monday, 22 June 2020 1:03 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Lightning alert I agree with Simon that being alerted when lightning has struck: a little late for that, but I disagree with him that being struck by lightning will put both you and your phone out of order because there are many recorded instances of unfortunate and, obviously, attractive people who have been lightning-struck, not only once but several-many times who have lived to bore their friends with the tale of their, miraculous, experience.

If it's struck then it's not an issue And if you're worried about it striking you when you're out, Then if it's already struck, it will be way to late to look at your phone as neither yu or your phone will be working. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Jennie Facer Sent: Sunday, 21 June 2020 9:00 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Lightning alert Hi, I have had Weather Gods for quite some time, and it has never alerted me to when lightning has struck. Other than that, I love the app. Jenn Jenn and Kumi -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
