Thor Guard Lightning Prediction System

The Rosemont Park District has Thor Guardian, a lightning prediction system.  The sensor monitors energy as far away as 15 miles, evaluating the potential for lightning within an area of approximately two miles in radius.  When Thor Guardian senses hazardous conditions, the system automatically provides both audible and visual alerts.  It is recommended that when the warning system is activated (one prolonged 15 second horn blast) the affected areas, ball fields, basketball courts, and playground areas be cleared and you should seek shelter.  Activity may not resume until the all clear is given (3 short blasts of the horn, and the strobe lights on the building go off).  The strobe light signals are a continuing lightning alert.  The strobe lights are orange; there is one on the south corner of the building and one on the north side of the building on the Thor Guardian indicator.  Common sense must still be used; if there is an unsafe weather condition, do not wait for the horn to blast; clear the area.  Hours that the system is activated are 8:00 am to 10:00 pm, seven days a week from March 15 to November 15.  The Thor Guardian horn is tested during the above months on every Wednesday at 10:00 am.  Park users should stop and seek shelter any time they believe lightning threatens them, even if a signal has NOT sounded!  Remember park users will be warned by one prolonged blast signaling a strong risk for lightning in the immediate area.  The strobe light signals a continuing lightning alert condition.  Three short horn blasts signals it is safe to return to the open outside areas.
