SkyScan has received very postive comments from around the country. The SkyScan device can determine the range of the lightning flash up to 40 miles away. WCSC's initial evaluation of the SkyScan product is favorable. It has been accurate for the storms we have monitored. We hope to use the SkyScan detector to help determine when to suspend or terminate games at the Bartlesville soccer complex.
More information is available upon request.
As an update, unfortunately, WCSC has not come up with a clear path on how to implement the use of the Skyscan Lightning Detector. It has worked reasonably well when we have been able to test it, but we cannot agree on a plan that would allow it to be universally used at our fields. While this is discussed, our best course is to keep informing and educating the public. We welcome all suggestions on creating a policy that is reasonable to all people. Remember, use common sense above all else.
