[quote=Anonymous]I was at my parents’ midwestern country club a few weeks ago when a storm came through. I could hear the not-so distant thunder and was shocked that the pool remained open as I, in my conditioned state, exited the pool upon the first rumble. The thunder/lightning call at this pool is made exclusively by the golf pro. Instead, the lifeguards had a loud conversation that any other pool would be closed and that they would recommend we all leave the pool deck area. The golf pro sounded the alarm three mins later, which was no more than five mins after I exited the pool. All to say, the time difference is slight between a conservative thunder/lightning call and a quick call. (For how long the pool is closed after that call is another issue.)[/quote]
