And yes, NFHS does say that the game should be suspended upon seeing lightning or hearing thunder. You can resume 30 minutes after hearing the last thunder or seeing the last lightning.

NFHS says it is a guideline default policy. Some states use 30 second flash bang which I think is closer, about 6 miles, than hearing thunder, 10 miles. If the school has a detector I've seen some that indicate safe as close as 8 miles.
