Re: Lightning alert for the WDT weather radio app
Hi, It should be noted that this app is no longer supported by its maker who's been bought out by another company. Thus no new in app purchases will go through. The Weather Channel offers lightning alerts as does Storm Shield though the latter is a paid subscription but it is very similar to Weather Radio right down to the alert sound. Sadly no existing weather apps that I know offer the lightning all clear alert that weather radio alert used to feature but there are options for lightning alerts in general as I've indicated above. I hope that helps. Take good care. Robin On 1/1/2021 9:42 AM, Wren Langley wrote: Hi, Thank you for the instructions.

I hope I can figure this out because I do really like this app. God bless, Wren Langley Sent from my iPhone On Dec 31, 2020, at 6:36 AM, Gadget Girl wrote: Hi there.

Re: Lightning alert for the WDT weather radio app
Hi. I agree with Richard… Call Apple Accessibility. Sometimes I need to delete my apps and reinstall them due to corruption of files, but this could be an Apple accessibility problem. Good luck.

Hi there. I renew my subscription every year without issue. renewal has been $4.99 per year. Registration is optional; but in order to restore your purchase, you will need to be registered. When you first open the App and flicking to the right, you will hear a list of your saved Locations you have designated to be monitored; Then Maps. If you continue swiping to the right, VoiceOver jumps back to the top, does not take you to the bottom, and continues to go back to the top and read down the list again. So, place your finger in the lower left corner (about a half inch from the Bottom). You should now be on the ToolBar. Now, when swiping to the right, You should hear: Purchase Lightning, Add Location, Share, Settings, and Play Audio. selecting Purchase Lightning will take you to the Option you are looking for. My subscription is still active until next year so my screen displays, 'Lightning Alert Switch Button On' and my subscription's Expiry Date. If the subscription has expired, it generally would show options to purchase Lightning Alerts for $4.99. I believe the Restore option is to move an active Subscription to a new Device. Once purchased, be sure to go to Settings to turn on your preferences for the App, such as Lightning & National Weather Service (NWS) Alerts. Note, the 'Back Button' is at the top left corner.

Re: Lightning alert
At least, one has the comfort of knowing if one hears the thunder, that one can be confident that, unless he/she is one of the microscopic number of lightning-proof people, he/she hasn't been struck. I heard of a guy who took shelter in a shed that stood in his horse's paddock . He heard, what sounded like an explosion, and when he poked his head out of the shed, there was a scorched patch on the ground, and, nearby, the blackened corpse of the animal. Shod horses are, particularly, vulnerable to lightning strikes because of their iron footwear.

Re: Lightning alert
Hi. I listened to a podcast that was reviewed on AppleVis years ago and got the app, Weather Radio. It has a paid Lightening Alert which was (and still is) $4.99 USD. You renew it every year. Although sometimes I miss the date, it still gives me alerts. It gives lightening at approx. 4 miles out and is very accurate in my case. i've been using it a very long time… Years; and have never been struct!

RE: Lightning alert
Hi, Yea, I have a friend here in Florida who has been struck 5 times. He is like a lightening magnet! When a thunder storm is near, he does not stay near us if we are outside. Lightening here is a real problem that we all take seriously. That is why it is so important to be able to get any kind of warning if there is a lightening strike anywhere within say 30 miles or so. These storms can move 40 to 50 MPH so it does not take long till it is on us. Our public schools are told that if there is one lightening flash within 30 miles, they must hold the students inside for an additional 30 minutes till they can be dismissed or go outside. We need apps that will give us any advanced warning. -Steve -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Simon A Fogarty Sent: Tuesday, June 23, 2020 12:25 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Lightning alert Yeah but those that have been hit and survived are a lot less than those who have been hit and not survived.

Re: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
- Sent from Bill's iPhone 6 (iOS 12.4.7) via Google Mail I’ve had two dog guides, both from Leader, and they did originally show some anxiety durring thunder storms. In fact, my first dog and I got caught in a fast moving thunderstorm on one of our very first walks in Wheaton. I had decided to go to the neighborhood Convenient store about three blocks from home.. We were almost there when thunder and rain showers started. I sat him down gently and put my arm around his neck and scratched his ears while softly assuring him we were OK. He settled down and never had an issue with thunder again. But then, I suppose that my temperament of thoroughly enjoying thunder storms was readily sensed by Jake. Holland, my second dog, never quite completely got over the thunderstorm anxiety syndrome, although it did diminish significantly after several such storms and my reaction. But, I had brought Jake home in April whereupon we had an opportunity to experience a thunderstorm immediately. Holland came home (to Superior) in mid October whence thunderstorms are very rare affairs in northern Wisconsin. So, Holland was with me at least seven months before thunderstorms would occur. I do believe that was a bit too much an upheaval of his calm wintry environment. Still, he was a trooper and carried on with his duties. - Bill from Ino, Wisconsin - "The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion.” - Paulo Coelho, Poet-Writer -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
I have had 8 guide dogs and my first one was the only one that truly showed any fear of storms. But she was a trooper and up till her last year here when her fear escalated in to just plain fear of sounds, that she handled it quite well in spite of her obvious dislike of storms where she'd go hide if she could, or she would tremble until I would just lay my hand on her and talk to her calmly.

Re: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
That is so true. My second dog from Leader dogs was very afraid of fireworks but not thunder until later on in her life. She got over her fireworks fear. My three dogs have not been afraid of thunder though.

Re: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
I have owned dogs, of all shapes and sizes since 1959, and not one of them has ever shown the slightest sign of fear, or worse, re electrical storms and this is, I am convinced, because I love electrical storms: the more spectacular, the better; and fireworks? well I can't say that I * love them, but they, most assuredly, don't bother me or my dog/s!

I agree with Simon that being alerted when lightning has struck: a little late for that, but I disagree with him that being struck by lightning will put both you and your phone out of order because there are many recorded instances of unfortunate and, obviously, attractive people who have been lightning-struck, not only once but several-many times who have lived to bore their friends with the tale of their, miraculous, experience.

Re: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
Before I tell you all about the Netty and Guy story and thunder story, I've never heard in all these many years from 1976 when I got my dog and all these years of many friends attending the different guide dog schools including leader dog, amoungst so many things that goes into a dog's training in being fully prepared and ready to handle everything that comes their way, I never heard of a guide dog school working with the dogs on fear of thunder, but that's probably something that's included with so many other things in their training and preparation for being a guide dog. Of course, just like people dogs have other fears. Though it does seem comon that many dogs have a fear of thunder and fire works, but just like common fears that people have, amoungst dogs too, not every dog or person have those most common fears. It would probably would be beneficial if the guide dog schools worked with the dogs with the fear of thunder, and possibly many of the schools are doing just that and we're not aware of that. That could be important if you're either a block or 2 from home or a block or 2 from transportation to get you home, it wouldn't be the best situation for your dog to be very frightened. Though in a situation such as that hopefully it would be great if there was a place very near by where you could wait until the rain and thunder is over. So While this isn't a guide dog support group, it would be a sad reflection on a guide dog school to asume that fears including the fear of thunder isn't worked on with the dogs, especially on what we individually know. Of all the dogs I've known, pet dogs and guide dogs with the exception of one dog, all the dogs had a fear of thunder. It's something that can vary from person to person, concerning the dogs they know, for example another person might say, the majority dogs I know aren't a fraid, or in terms of duge dogs, someone could say that they know 5 dogs from such and such guide dog school that have no fear of thunder and 2 that are afraid of thunder, and that they know 6 dogs from another guide dog school where 3 of the dogs are afraraid of thunder and 3 that aren't. I would habe to hear that would be the determining thing about one school being better than the other, there's just so very manythings they work on with preparing and training the dogs and of course all of that is something we all know. Now for the Netty and Guy story, both guide dogs from guiding eyes, Netty was my dog and she was a yellow labrador, and Guy was a german shepherd that belonged to my friend Greg. Along with a few other fwith Greg, at his apartment, It was the 4th of july in about 1979, you could hear fire crackers and on top of that it began to thunder. Knowing how scared Netty was of thunder storms I went to her, and found her lying on one of the couches really scared. Then Guy came into the living room, and was just walking around the room, to him everything was fine, just barking here and there. Clearly he wasn't nervous or a fraid of the fire works and thunder, and I was thinking it was as if he was trying to tell us something. Fast forward about 6 months later, this one night, in our own apartment, it began thundering and raining, this time it was different for netty, while she seemed still a little nervous about the thunder, it was nothing like other times when she was so scared of it, and she even barked somewhat like Guy did. So we just know Guy must have been helping her not to be afraid of thunder, and she remembered that and he helped her with that. - Original Message - From: "Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND" To: Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2020 2:00 PM Subject: RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert I also thought that was one of the things the dog schools screened dogs for, but my husband and I have had three dogs, from Guiding Eyes and Seeing Eye, and all of them had a real fear of thunderstorms.

RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
The one dog I had that really hated lightning was from The Seeing Eye. The field rep came out and was going to get me a thunder shirt, but the dog gave up working before I would have received the shirt. Florida is really no place with a fear of storms. About a half hour before we'd hear the thunder, the dog would cower in his kennel and we knew that something was going to be happening soon. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2020 3:00 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert I also thought that was one of the things the dog schools screened dogs for, but my husband and I have had three dogs, from Guiding Eyes and Seeing Eye, and all of them had a real fear of thunderstorms.

RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
My first dog was from Leader Dogs, but that was a long time ago oin 1994, then in 2005 I got my second dog from BC Guide Dog Services here in British Columbia, Canada and that is also where I got my current dog in 2015. My first and my current dogs are both yellow labs and my second one was a black lab/golden retriever mix. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2020 11:32 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert I've known several dog guide owners whose dogs were terrified of thunder storms.

Merv From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Robin Frost Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2020 12:11 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Lightning alert Hi, These apps usually alert for lightning detected on radar within 5 to 3 miles thus it might not be overhead but people can know when it might be approaching. I for one as a blind person find this information invaluable.

Re: Lightning alert
Hi, These apps usually alert for lightning detected on radar within 5 to 3 miles thus it might not be overhead but people can know when it might be approaching. I for one as a blind person find this information invaluable. As often where I live we can have heat lightning I.E. lightning which occurs without any accompanying thunder. thus having no light perception I appreciate knowing when lightning has been detected nearby. I find that Weather Radio and The Weather Channel apps are the most accurate when it comes to such alerts in my area of the Eastern United States. I hope that helps.

RE: Lightning alert
Had you read the beginning of the thread, the person wanted an app for their iPhone to warn about thunder storms/lightning. The rest is explanations of questions people had who had never heard of garments to keep dogs calm. Perfectly appropriate in my opinion.

How to calm a dog during thunder storms, was RE: Lightning alert
ir focus on you and make the experience a happy occasion. This will help make thunderstorms seem like a normal experience and keep them from getting scared during a real one. Encourage calm behavior. Give your dog a treat or a toy when it shows calm behavior during a storm, or when it obeys a command despite its fear. Train it to respond to a "relax," "calm," or "settle" command. • Training your dog with an indoor leash is also highly effective. For example, treat your house like an indoor obstacle course and lead your dog around asking him/her to perform certain commands. If at any time this appears to be causing more stress, stop, and work on calming your dog. Anticipate your dog's fear. To curb stress and anxiety, engage with your dog before the storm hits. Prepare indoor activities, and make sure your dog's safe place is set up. • Do not punish a dog exhibiting fear or anxiety during a storm. This is not bad behavior – your dog has a genuine phobia. • Be patient and kind. It may take time for your dog to improve. • If you know a thunderstorm is coming, let your dog outside to go to the bathroom. Once the storm starts the dog is unlikely to go outside to relieve itself. From: https://www.wikihow.com/Calm-a-Dog-During-Thunderstorms Richard "He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself,” and we forget that only grace can break the cycle of ancient hatreds among peoples. (It is notable that while I have regretted not granting grace to others, I’ve never once regretted extending it.)" - Edward Herbert -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com On Behalf Of Shirley Baker Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2020 6:36 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Lightning alert No, it's not.

Re: Lightning Alert?
Hi Robin and all, I love weather radio, and I find it very accurate for weather and lightning alerts. Especially for lightning alerts. However, it doesn’t seem to work correctly with voiceover anymore. Have you noticed the same problem?

Re: Lightning Alert?
Hi, I use Weather Radio or the Weather channel for lightning alerts. The apps for my local Fox and CBS affiliate also give lightning alerts too so if you have those for stations nearby that's another alternative too. But typically I find the most accurate are The Weather c Channel and Weather Radio. Take good care.

Re: Lightning alert
HI holly, That is what i was saying is that weather gods did not give me a lightning alert. I will have to give this weather app from the weather channel a try to see if it notifies me of when lightning strikes near me. Caret weather is the only one that I have found to do this. Weather radio used to but I don’t think it does anymore. You had to buy something like an in-app purchase to get it to work. I just don’t think it offers that any longer. Caret weather has different tiers that you can subscribe to, but tier 3 is the only one that does lightning alerts. I hope that this other weather app works.

RE: Lightning Alert?
You are talking about subscribing to Carat weather right. I think Weather Gods is free or maybe a one time charge. It has been a long time. The Weather Channel is much more accessible than it used to be. I checked it out after the recommendation. It took a while to figure out how to set my city as a favorite so I could turn on the alerts. Time will tell how good it is.
