I just visited www.strikealert.com and it seems the instrument informs you the distance of the strike. I assume it is you to you to decide how close you want the storm to get to you before seeking cover.
I would think it would be beneficial in letting you know when the storm is going away. Many a golf game, and other incidents, are cancelled only to find the storm started to move away.
Thanks for the tip, Talk Host, I am now going back to their site to investigate more.
