Lightning safety
Canada gets over two million lightning strikes a year, and lightning causes up to 10 deaths and more than 160 injuries annually. Environment Canada's advice is short: when thunder roars, go indoors, and stay inside for 30 minutes after the last rumble.
The map shows lightning density on a 2.5 km grid for the latest 10-minute window, not single strikes. An empty map means no lightning is being detected in view. For warnings, see weather alerts.
