Averages for 1995–2024. Rain days have 1 mm or more. Heat-stress days are when the estimated wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT) at the day’s peak reaches 28°, the caution level Lumen Sites starts with (stop days reach 32°). It uses the Bureau of Meteorology’s simplified formula, which assumes moderate sun and light wind: how heat stress is estimated. Climate averages: SILO (Queensland Government, CC BY 4.0), interpolated from Bureau of Meteorology observations.
Lumen Sites checks for lightning within 100 km of Channar every 5 minutes while storms are forecast or strikes are nearby. Strikes inside your warning and stop distances, 30 and 10 km by default, set the site to Caution or Stop until a 30-minute all-clear. It also forecasts heat stress (WBGT), gusts, rain and blasting conditions hour by hour against your own limits.
