SaskLightning - MicroLDN Local Coverage Map
Microsferics Lightning Detection Network, MicroLDN, is a low cost, high accuracy experimental lightning detection network.
SaskLightning along with several other Western Canada detectors have joined this network to provide more accurate lightning location. Note however, that some local lightning strikes may not be displayed if they do not meet the criteria required for the network.

Seek proper shelter well in advance of approaching lightning whenever possible. It is important to remember that thunderstorms can develop quickly and with little warning. Lightning can be present in significant amounts even when NexStorm is not tracking any structured thunderstorms.
Environment Canada has a good page discussing lightning safety. A link to this page is provided under Quick Links to the left. They also have a pdf document available discussing Severe Summer Weather. I highly recommend you read that document.
