Lightning Detection & Weather Monitoring
As part of the City of Pompano Beach’s commitment to public safety, we provide access to the Perry Weather System, a lightning detection and weather monitoring resource that helps residents and visitors make informed decisions during changing weather conditions.
This system offers real-time information on lightning activity and current conditions at select parks and outdoor recreational areas throughout the city.
How the Perry Weather System Helps
Florida’s weather can change quickly—especially during storm season. The Perry Weather System helps enhance outdoor safety by:
- Monitoring lightning activity in real time
- Displaying current weather conditions at participating parks
- Supporting safer decision-making for park patrons, athletic programs, and special events
- Helping reduce the risk of lightning-related injuries
When lightning is detected nearby, users can quickly see conditions and take appropriate action, such as seeking shelter or postponing outdoor activities.
Park-Specific Monitoring
The Perry Weather System provides location-based information for various parks across Pompano Beach, allowing users to view conditions specific to where they are recreating—rather than relying on general weather forecasts.
