I don't know who makes the decision but there are lightening "sensors" placed all over Clarke County and in particular on campus. Lightening is not a visual threat...if you are seeing strikes you are well into a very dangerous situation....there are easily detectable signals that lightening strikes are imminent that aren't noticeable to humans but are highly indicative that lightening is likely to occur. Lightening can happen anywhere at any time when these conditions are present....if strikes are visible or you can hear it the conditions have probably been such that it could happen at anytime for a couple of hours before and after. It is a pain in the arse but the officials would be remiss if they had knowledge of favorable conditions and did not take steps to mitigate the danger.
