Bad weather is defined as:

2) lightning is local (our mobile lightning detectors indicate 0 – 5 miles),

3) wind is too strong(Beaufort 5; 16-20 knots; Fresh Breeze; Many whitecaps, small amounts of spray).

However, the likelihood of bad weather is low, and occasions where programs did not proceed were few and far in between. Our leaders will make the decision for postponement when bad weather persists for more than 1 hour from scheduled start time of program. Participants not present will be treated as no show, and penalty charge is 100 percent of the program fees.
