Players should stop play and seek shelter any time they believe lightning threatens them, even if a signal has not been sounded.
The Thor Guard Lightning Prediction System will be activated if there is a threat of cloud to ground lightning (the most dangerous to golfers) within the area. Players will be warned of a red alert with one prolonged blast (15 seconds) signaling immediate suspension of play and practice.
All Members, Guests and Staff must adhere to the Club's policy of immediately stopping play and seeking shelter when the System is activated and may not recommence play until the System or staff member has advised the golfers that they may do so.
The System will sound 3 blasts of 5 seconds each to signify all clear. This policy applies to both golf courses, the driving range and all practice facilities. Shelter may be in the Clubhouse, Pro Shop, Half-Way House, Club and Cart Storage Building, vehicle in the parking lot or at any of the lightning rod protected shelters on the golf course.
Avoid open areas, water, tall trees, metal fences, overhead wires & power lines, elevated ground, golf power carts, mowers, cell phones and radios.
