While playing if there is sign of lightning, the game should be stopped for coaches (if no umps present) to discuss continuing or cancelling the game. 30/30 RULE When you see lighting, count the time until you hear thunder. If this time is thirty (30) seconds or less, seek proper shelter. Wait thirty (30) minutes or more after hearing the last thunder before leaving the shelter. If you cannot see the lighting, just hearing the thunder is good back up rule.
