Be sure your sport association has a lightning safety policy and that everyone knows the 30-30 rule.

• When you can count 30 seconds or less between lightning and thunder, head for safe shelter
• Remain sheltered for 30 minutes after the last clap of thunder.

To help you recall this important rule of thumb, Environment Canada and SIRC are providing wallet-sized business cards with the 30-30 rule on them along with some lightning safety tips.

Visit the SIRC Weather Resource Page to Print out and distribute these wallet sized lightning safety cards or contact Kim Sparling to order them from SIRC*.
