  1. The forum and radar are entirely separate set ups. Have you double checked your browser permissions? It may be worth resetting them to 'ask for permission' (or similar) to ensure they're lined up.
  2. And I think that's everything back to normal, hopefully!
  3. The data is starting to come in again at the moment, so there'll be a bit of a period of jumping around as the system catches up (they're sending quite a lot of files at once, in a random order).
  4. The Met Office have come back about the radar, they're experiencing a network wide issue with it, which they're working to sort. As I type, the data for 1630 just came through, so it may be starting to recover, but I'd not be surprised if it's a bit bumpy for a bit at least.
  5. Mapantz The met office system didn't either, beyond a solitary strike around lunchtime. Whether that's a combined weakness or a combined strength, I'm not too sure, but the boltek-based systems are certainly capable of showing false positives. We are monitoring both systems right now, though, and aren't wedded to sticking with the new one, should it transpire that staying with the meto one is the best route.
  6. Yep, we're not receiving data from the met office currently, unfortunately. We've raised a ticket with them, so hopefully it'll be resolved soon. I suspect it may be a widespread issue as their own website isn't updated beyond 4pm either, the last I saw.
  7. Have you updated to the latest version of the v8 radar @Mapantz? Comparing what it's detecting with the old met office version, it's picking up a lot more strikes, from what i can see.
  8. Snowing here at the moment, it's wet though so only settling briefly/on the grass. On another subject, there's also plenty more rain about, but signs of some improvement at least going into the Easter weekend. @Jo Farrow's video forecast has some more details
  9. Seems to be doing a good job with the cells popping up and down this pm, picking up quite a lot of strikes.
  10. I don't think those sferics were picked up by anything other than blitz, so I don't know if they were legit. It's picked up ones on the devon coast a short while ago fine. We are monitoring and tweaking our internal system as we go though, so will be fine tuning.
  11. WeatherWatchmanG We had a site wide issue for a while there, but it's all resolved now
  12. There was a database error earlier, unfortunately. Teething trouble with the new system.
  13. The Vaisala lightning detection is now live on the V8 radar (including 1-minute updates when lightning is detected in the vicinity), and will be rolled out to other lightning detection on the site in the coming days.
  14. We've added the ECMWF's AI model to the (ever growing) list of models on the global viewer today
