Lightning alerts system current status

If you're at the North Port Aquatic Center when the horn and/or the light activates, the lifeguards will direct you to clear the area and seek shelter indoors for thirty minutes. Each time lightning is detected within eight miles, the alert system timer resets to thirty minutes and begins counting down again.

When the system no longer detects a threat, three five-second blasts from the horn will sound and the strobe light will stop flashing. The lifeguards will announce when the pool reopens.
