Our association has adopted the 30/30 rule.
Once lightening is observed, we begin counting. If the thunder is heard within 30 seconds of counting, the game is suspended until 30 minutes after the last lightening has occurred.
Should there be additional lightening accompanied by thunder within 30 seconds before the 30 minutes are up, the 30 minute counts starts over
All umpires are instructed to follow this procedure so communication about the issue is not an issue.
