Europe only follows a general summer - active / winter - inactive lightning season. Even in the "active" season there can be days with little activity, yesterday was one of them. A few days before all hell was being let loose... 29th June had an impressive curved storm front stretching from the Black Sea more or less up to the Baltic. Try June 29 1500 on the blitzortung.org Historical Maps page.
LMO could certainly do with some TLC. This is probably the cause of the lack of strike plotting:
"Google Maps API warning: RetiredVersion https://developers.google.com/maps/docum...ed-version"
I had to fiddle with the Google Maps API setup in MyLightiningDetector to make it work properly. Nothing complex adjustment to the API version requested and think a variable was no longer needed. The API is under constant development with experimental, release and frozen versions availaible. Every quarter they ripple down so experimental becomes release, release frozen and frozen disappears. If your script asks for API v3.25 and that has rippled out of the bottom of the list of available APIs your script will fail. Asking for just v3 will use the current release version.
