4 of us braved golfing this morning. When we showed up, the course was under a lightning advisory so the hopes of playing seemed limited, but we ultimately got out, and saw nobody else on the course.
After 9 holes, two people decided they were satisfied with the amount of golf they had played and called it a day, while 2 of us kept going.
The lightning warnings continued to go on and off, with little to cause concern in the area.
Until halfway through hole 16. Then it wasn't a course notification, but the Tornado/Severe Weather sirens for the city that started going off. Not much seemed to change in the weather so we decided we'd finish the hole we were on and then re-evaluate. After that hole we decided we'd just head in and call it a day.
That half hole proved to be the breaking point. As we drove back we watched it get darker. Getting to the end of the course we felt the first drop. By the drive across the parking lot we were soaked.
Half a hole sooner and we would have been in the car dry.

I wondered how many holes you got in and I was sure glad I was at home when the skies opened up. I enjoyed the time we had with you. Hopefully we can do it again sometime.
