Real-Time Lightning Tracking Has Arrived!

We are excited to introduce you to our all new Lightning feature, the most comprehensive and accurate lightning network worldwide. By using real-time observations, along with the forecast, you can make better decisions to stay safe on your next passage.

We’ve also been hard at work upgrading our existing features to give you even greater protection when out on the water.

Supercharged Satellite Imagery.

In a world-first, you can now see satellite imagery combined with rain radar, and GMDSS weather warnings. Cross reference these three sources to accurately locate and track extreme weather events such as cyclones, thunderstorms, fronts and more.

Be warned in advance.

The forecast tables and daily briefing pages have built in extreme weather alerts to warn you of potentially dangerous conditions. These include:

• Lightning Index
• Cape Index for Thunderstorms
• Rain Squalls
• High Gusts
• Fog
• Wind Chill
• Wind against current

Wind against Tidal Current warnings.

The Wind Against Current alert within the Weather Routing and Departure Planning features now includes Tidal Currents along with Ocean Currents. Alerts give you the time and location of dangerous wave conditions that Wind Against Tide can cause, so you can keep your boat and crew safe.

See further ahead with GMDSS Map upgrades.

Using AI we translate the GMDSS text forecasts into a map view to display:

• Thunderstorms
• High and low pressure systems
• Troughs, ridges and fronts
• Ice
• Tropical depressions, storms and cyclones.

Initially the map had an outlook of 12 hours, but now you can view all future alerts in the GMDSS forecasts.
