Thunderstorm Lite

Thunderstorm Lite is designed with a specific and intriguing purpose: to calculate the distance of a thunderstorm. By utilizing the significant difference in the speed of light and sound, the app allows users to track the proximity of a storm in real-time. Once you witness the lightning flash, simply press the 'Lightning' button, and upon hearing the thunder, hit the 'Thunder' button. The result will display the storm's distance from your location, with the option to switch between metric and imperial units to suit your preference.

One key feature that enhances the usefulness of the app is the history list, which provides insight into whether the storm is approaching or receding. This feature can be an invaluable tool for outdoor safety, personal interest, or educational purposes, offering a practical application of physics in everyday life.

Available as ad-supported freeware, this means users can benefit from its functionalities without incurring any cost, although with the presence of advertisements. If you’re curious about the weather and prefer to stay informed about storm movements, this tool could be an advantageous addition to your digital toolkit.
