the atlas and lightning sensors have a running count for strikes
i have a atlas and lightning sensor and i use this in weewx.conf
under sdr in sensor map
[SDR]
    [[sensors_map]]
        strike_total = strike_count.494.AcuriteAtlasPacket
        lightning_distance = strike_distance.494.AcuriteAtlasPacket
    [[deltas]]
        lightning_strike_count = strike_total

then add accumulators section to weewx.conf
[Accumulator]
    [[lightning_distance]]
        extractor = last

then in stdcalibrate
[StdCalibrate]
    [[Corrections]]
        lightning_distance = lightning_distance if lightning_strike_count > 
0 else None
hope this helps
