I know this deviates from your question a bit so I am apologizing up front (the sovcit posts that I love have made me wanna deviate)... I really like wunderground. I hate that IBM bought them though but it's probably to monetize their trove of weather data. they have access to private weather stations, great viz of weather data by the hour, history to the day, etc. I use nextdns.io to block ads to the best of my ability but I know there is some device info they collect. It does have a rubust section on opting out and deleting tracking data. I don't see lighting tracking regretfully. It's worth trying out. The website can show lighting BTW.
Fellow wonderground user, I second the recommendation. Their weather model is pretty good and I paid the small yearly subscription price so no ads.
Note that IBM sold them, that's why you haven't seen the IBM logo on the loading slash screen again.
Ooh.... That is good news. Thank you. Screw Big Blue.
