Could you expand a bit upon this? What sort of surprises do you
feel sferics allow and in what circs?

What would you prefer for GA wx avoidance?

A strikefinder, as I understand it, tells where lightning is. I prefer to
know where it's going to be.

As far as surprises: the first strike has to be somewhere. There's nothing
but "big sky" which says that it'll be 200 miles out (the limit of the
strikefinder in a plane I fly) instead of 200 feet out.

What would I prefer? I don't really know what's available. RADAR would be
nice.
