Lightning Safety Policy

  • For the safety of all guests, the pool, pool deck, and showers will be closed during a lightning storm.
  • If lightning is detected within a 10-mile radius, lifeguards will sound a long whistle blast to signal immediate suspension of all pool activities and to clear the pool deck.
  • Locker rooms will remain open; however, showers are not permitted during the storm.
  • The pool deck and showers will reopen only after 30 minutes have passed with no lightning.
  • Each new lightning strike resets the 30-minute countdown. Your safety is our priority—thank you for your cooperation.
  • See our Perry Weather lightning monitoring widgets below for each pool location.
