These days, on nearly all major construction projects (I'm an ironworker so I'm speaking of outdoors, with structural steel), if lightning has struck within 8-10 miles, workers are supposed to be "under cover" for 20-30 minutes after the last strike. The safety department monitors this with a lightning detector. How accurate these are, I can't say, but that's what they use. I've been in the business for 38 years and that didn't happen (at least I hadn't seen it) until around 10-12 years ago. We were just left to use common sense (a characteristic with which ironworkers aren't always given much). I'm more like Patrick, and, although, I don't like riding in thunderstorms and try to avoid them, it's not a deal breaker. It was 90 degrees today by 12:30 with 65% humidity when I finished a 3 hour ride. I would have welcomed one! Thanks for the report Patrick.
