Every real strike on Earth right now, from Blitzortung.org's community VLF network — cross-checked live against Open-Meteo precipitation to flag the strikes that fell with zero rain: the ignition source fire services chase by hand.

How to read this
fresh strike (not yet classified)
dry-lightning cluster — no rain this hour
wet cluster — rain confirmed this hour
Clusters are ~11km grid cells checked once against Open-Meteo hourly precipitation. Rain data is model-derived (ERA5/forecast blend), good for "did it rain in that hour, that cell" — not a pluviometer-exact mm reading. VLF receiver density is uneven outside Europe/US, so strike density there understates true activity.
