The "normal" human ear can hear thunder from up to 10.5 nautical miles away from the lightning. The national weather services gives out thunder storm warnings at 10 nautical miles. The problem is that lightning can strike further away from a storm than that. In this situation (IMO, and no documentation to back it up) but if you feel it is unsafe than call it. Better be safe than sorry. Personally, if it was an open area that I could see atleast 5 miles that is when I would call it.

I have a question to add onto this. Wouldn't this be covered in a League rule?
