Coach Tippit: Here comes the rain. Abby: Is the game going to be called off? Referee: Not yet. I won't stop the game until I see lightning. Peri: Uh...I don't think you're going to be able to see anything.
It used to be different but as experience saw more and more people killedmor injured it tightened up. We started with stop the game on visible light, take shelter, wait fifteen minutes. It progressed slowly to 30 minutes and included thunder.

Been there, done that! Nothing like a monsoon downpour in the desert.

Once the lightning strikes, the game is cancelled.

Best be clearing the field when you hear the first thunder.

Only for lightning. The fact that you can’t see any infractions that might occur is insufficient.

The rule in Florida (though rarely followed, I admit) is: If you can see lightening or hear thunder, it is too late, you are in the Impact Zone.
