Lightening/ Thunder Policy

“If you can see it (lightning), flee it (take shelter).”   “If you can hear it (thunder), clear it (suspend activities).”
 
 
 
When you first see lightning or hear thunder, suspend activities and go to shelter. A metal vehicle or a substantial building is a safe place. Wait until 30 minutes after the last observed lightning or thunder before resuming activities.
