Your venues on live radar, with the official warnings

High-resolution radar for the whole country, with official National Weather Service warnings and watches drawn right over your venues — so you see the storm and the authority's call on one map.

The suspend and the all-clear, in everyone's pocket

Staff get a plain-language text the moment lightning enters a venue's safety radius, and again when it is safe to resume — no app to open, no dashboard to watch. Email, a webhook-triggered horn, and a public post can all fire at the same time.

Storm radar with live lightning strikes plotted and a measuring tool showing 47 miles to the nearest cell.

Live lightning, measured to the mile

Every strike is plotted as it happens, with the distance to the nearest cell — the measured picture behind every shelter and all-clear call, not a guess from the sky.

The alert history: an immutable table of every tier change, with an unacknowledged red alert escalated three times.

Acknowledge, escalate, and document every call

A shelter alert keeps re-notifying until a named person acknowledges it in the dashboard, and every tier change lands in an immutable record of what fired, who it reached, and who confirmed it — the documentation that the plan was followed.

The weather log: every venue suspension and all-clear with its duration and the closest strike distance.

Every suspension and all-clear, on the record

A season-long log of every venue's shelters and monitors, with durations and the closest strike — ready to export for your files or an incident review.

Everything you need to make the call —
and prove you made it

One system for detecting lightning, alerting the right people, and documenting the decision, so the person on the field is never guessing.

Live board

Every venue, one screen

A real-time status board shows each venue as CLEAR, MONITOR, or SHELTER, updated the instant the weather changes. A live 30-minute all-clear countdown tells staff exactly when it is safe to resume.

Alerting

Reach everyone, everywhere

Send the suspend and the all-clear to staff by email and text message, and trigger the horn or PA system you already own through a webhook. Post a plain-language update to a public channel for spectators.

Accountability

Acknowledge and escalate

A shelter alert keeps re-notifying your staff until a named person acknowledges it in the dashboard, so an unconfirmed alert never slips through. Turn the escalation loop on or off per venue.

Share

A public board for everyone

Share one login-free link with coaches, officials, and parents so the whole venue is looking at the same call. It updates live and shows only the current status — nothing private.

Schedule

Aware of your calendar

Add your games, practices, and meets, and every alert is annotated with the active event, so your record reads "SHELTER during Varsity Football," not just a timestamp.

Documentation

An audit-ready record

Every suspension and all-clear is written to an immutable decision log with who acknowledged it and when — the documentation an athletics program is expected to keep, exportable for your files.

Precision

Ground-based total lightning

Add precise, ground-based lightning detection so your board reacts to in-cloud charging before the first strike reaches the ground — the earliest possible warning.

Venue display

Put it on the big screen

Run a full-screen venue display on the pool deck or sideline TV — a large, glanceable verdict and countdown anyone can read from across the field.

Ask Bolt

An assistant that explains it

Ask Bolt what is happening, when it will clear, and what is coming in the next few hours, and get a plain-language answer grounded in your venue's live data.

Grounded in official lightning-safety guidance. Our recommendations follow the CISA and NCS4 outdoor-venue guidance — monitor, prepare, and shelter by distance to the nearest lightning — and are based on live detection. They are meant to work alongside official National Weather Service warnings, which remain the source of truth.

Plans that scale with you, not per site.
