2019 : A lightly struck by lightning year in France ... but an important electrical activity in Western Europe
Thunderstorm surveillance report

In 2019, more than 1 334 400 cloud-to-ground lightning flashes have been recorded by Meteorage detection network in Western Europe(1); an electrical activity twice less important than 2018, with a particularly weak first semester in all countries of the zone.

However, the total of cloud-to-ground lightning detected throughout the year for all of the Western European countries (except France) ranks 2019 as the second most struck by lightning year since 2012.
