It is not only sailors who get confused going around the world. The lightning map on the WeatherBug site and in the WeatherBug iOS/iPadOS app gets confused if you scroll all the way around. When opened in the US the map is centered on the US. Scroll east to bring Europe and Africa into view and it shows lightning there. Keep scrolling east to see lighting in Asia and beyond. When you come all the way around and the US comes into view there is no lightning. Keep going east and Europe and Africa and Asia have no lightning. Go around east a few mores times. Then reverse direction. You've got to go around west the same number of times you went around east to get the lightning back. For US users who want to check lighting in Europe or Africa this probably won't cause problems. They will most likely scroll east. But for US users who want to check lighting in say Japan or Australia they will probably scroll west, and there will be no lightning. To see lighting in Japan or Australia US users have to scroll east past Europe.
