I did go on and buy that lightning detector (was delivered Wednesday and I set it up yesterday) and I have been trying out the different sensitivities on it by changing the dip switches. I had gotten it to what seemed to be a reasonable setting after going from nothing with an obvious lightning flash to apparent interference signals (registering counts with nothing on radar), but with the current setting over the past 2 1/2 hours, I've registered 327 strikes. I was initially thinking maybe I'm getting some interference and false hits, but a couple live lightning maps were verifying it and it didn't start registering anything until around 5:15 pm today, with the current setting configured yesterday afternoon and nothing registering after that until this storm today. It has finally settled down in the past 20 minutes.
Good to see it's working. I assume that it detects all lightning, IC and CG strikes?

Somehow only have 1.16" of rain. Seemed like more than that.

KDIX radar is under estimating totals big time
Has me at 0.5" while I'm really at 0.75" now.

The lightning is wild right now. This is only showing c2g strikes, but it's pretty much a strobe show. So loud outside with the rain and thunder. Crazy!

Apparently this is the tornado from Strathmere.

Wind is wild now. Must of had a couple gusts to 50 mph where I'm at. Station is measuring gusts to 40 mph.
-
Up to 2.34". Winds are really starting to pick up now.
-
Getting it now with some 5+ inch per hour rates. Up to 1.6" on the day. That total is gonna climb fast.
-
Up to 0.6" of rain on the day already from a couple of quick thunderstorms.
That's a lot of hazards! Gonna be a busy day at Mt Holly.

90F with an 80F dew point. 107F heat index. Disgusting!

Nice sunset right now with some mammatus. 1.21" of rain on the day. Brings the monthly total to 7.11".

Maybe 7! It looks like there's a C-2-C strike top right. And just below that on the horizon there's a bit of light, but can't really say if it's lightning in the distance or not.
Sorry, meant cg strikes. There's definitely that IC strike, but I think the one near the horizon is just a light.

Nice! I bought a new station (just delivered yesterday) and am thinking of getting a lightning sensor for it (if anything, as a geek option since they are obviously not as accurate as the pro detectors
).
lol. That's definitely the geek option.
Did reach 82 here today, but that's gone now with the current downpour. Now at 78.

My first ever capture of 5 simultaneous strikes. Last night's storms were like a strobe show.

Largest storm total rainfall in quite some time. Doesn't seem to want to quit either.
