Well worth the investment. All we need to do is add the sirens and it will be fully automated. Any lighning with 5 miles of the property and it goes off until the all clear function disables the sirens.

As long as it goes off and we can hit the trout pond thats fine

I heard something about a guy down in Bristol, got struck by lightning out on a jetty. Anybody else hear that?

Why you would stay on a jetty during a thunderstorm is beyond me.

Depending on how long the jetty is, you might have a better shot hunkered down in the rocks than trying to walk in. If I was out on the end of the Scussett jetty, I probably couldn't get in before a fast moving cell closed in on me.

I probably wouldn't be out there in the first place when storms were forecast, but lots of guys don't check the online weather, or know what the warning signs in the sky look like.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
