Hi,
I was looking for some hotspots in order to take pictures of lightnings (taking all possible security measure of course) and I could not find any good way of accessing to this information.
I wrote a script in order to extract the CSV data and to stich them temporally and I reprocessed the data afterward into Mathematica. Doing so I managed to generate the attached pictures.
For those interested in local density plot.
Below the script written in Python using the Selenium library. This script needs to be edited in order to perform your task, you need to define: - The location of your chromedriver
- The download path
- Your login on Blitzortung
- Your password on Blitzortung
- The start date for the data collection
- The min/max latitude and longitude of the area of interest
Code: #!/usr/bin/python3
import time
import datetime
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
path_download = ""
path_chromedriver = "" #were chromedriver is stored download at https://chromedr
iver.chromium.org/downloads
login = "" #your login
pwd = "" #your path
start_year = 2015 #when to start
start_month = 6 #idem
start=day = 1 #idem
lon_min = 49.2 #longitude min
lon_max = 50.2 #longitude max
lat_min = 7.8 #latitude min
lat_max = 8.9 #latitude max
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() ;
prefs = {"download.default_directory" : path_download}
options.add_experimental_option("prefs",prefs);
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = path_chromedriver, chrome_options=op
tions)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
driver.get("https://www.blitzortung.org/en/login.php")
time.sleep(1.)
driver.find_element_by_xpath("/html/body/div[2]/div/p[3]/span/span[5]").click()
driver.find_element_by_name("login_username").send_keys("EMP_22")
time.sleep(0.2)
driver.find_element_by_name("login_password").send_keys("EFM_27")
time.sleep(2.)
driver.find_element_by_class_name("center").click()
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='submit']").click()
date_start = datetime.datetime(start_year, start_month, start_day, 0, 0, 0)
for i in range(2000):
date_end = date_start+datetime.timedelta(days=2)
if date_end > datetime.datetime.now():
exit()
epoch_start = int(date_start.timestamp())
epoch_end = int(date_end.timestamp())
http_address = "https://www.blitzortung.org/en/archive_data.php?stations_us
ers=0&selected_numbers=*"
http_address += "&end_date=" + str(epoch_end)
http_address += "&end_time=" + str(0)

&delay=100&last_delay=1000&show_result=1"
driver.get(http_address)
driver.switch_to.frame(0)
#time.sleep(5.)
print(date_start)
print(date_end)
#filename_out = date_start.strftime("%Y%m%d")+"_"+date_end.strftime("%Y%m%d"
)+".csv.gz"
elt = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//a[contains(@href,'raw')]")#.get_attrib
ute('href'))

Any chance to get a station in Sardinia? |

Dear all,
our no-profit organisation (www.sardegna-clima.it ) is very interested in installing a lightning station in centre Sardinia as the Western Mediterranean seems not very well covered.
I've already posted the interested on the relevant page but being "Italy" seems that we are not on a pretty well position...
I was wondering if there is any chance to get the equipment in a reasonable time.
Many thanks in advance.
Enrico

System Blue rebooting often |

My system blue is rebooting often, I know it see a lot of interference during the day due to solar systems around it, and initially thought that was the reason, however I have notice that it is rebooting during the night also. I have tried to use the system log to try and find a possible reason but I seem to be bombarded with remote-config errors (See the extract from the log below) and wondering if this is taking up too much processor time and tripping the watchdog?
Station 2353
Regards,
Bevan

Powered off SystemBlue, only power led comes on now |

Hi all.
I was doing some reorganizing of my cabling, all was working fine, powered off my System Blue, moved cabling around, got all nice and neat, powered back on and now only power LED lights up. I let it set for a couple hours while I went off and did other things, but still, just 1 LED lit.
Double checked all cables, everything looks fine.
Any hints/tips/tricks to diagnose and/or get working again?

Lightning strike location |

I would need access to a lightning strike location for my city of Zavidovici located in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Europe. Lightning strikes around the city at a distance of up to 20 km from the town of Zavidovići. Is it possible to get constant access to the API since I have applied for the purchase of the device 6 times so far, but no one can tell me that I can buy the device. So I lost hope that I would ever get the device.
Thanks, Armin

About Historical Data |

Hi,
Please forgive my lack of knowledge. I use this website frequently to help determine where wildland fires may start in my region during fire season. The problem I have is that, if I am not monitoring this site constantly as a storm passes, and plotting the strikes separately, then the information is lost once the strike drops off the map. It would be of enormous help to me to be able to see strike data for a specific region aver the past 6-12, maybe even 24 hours. Is there a way to do this? If so, how? If not, is it something you folks would ever consider implementing?
Either way, please know that a great many of us in the farm/ranch community are very grateful that this site exists. Fires often don't take off and burn for several hours after a strike, and it's wonderful to have some data to help us focus our watch efforts.

Thanks in advance.
