(SUNRISE, Fla.) – Thor Guard – the world’s only lightning and tornado prediction system – extends its partnership with the Chicago District Golf Association (CDGA) to deliver the most useful, sophisticated, timely, reliable and accurate advance warning for potential lightning and other adverse weather conditions to one of the oldest and largest golf associations in the United States.
“Understanding weather conditions is a large part of an establishment’s daily operations,” says Bob Dugan, President of Thor Guard. “As the meteorological-solutions pioneer, we’re excited to continue playing a vital role in protecting the safety of CDGA guest, staff, and their surrounding communities.”
Through a single sensor, hundreds of thousands of calculations monitor the necessary electrostatic field before a lightning strike can occur between the storm cell and the ground. Systems analyze the ongoing increase or decrease in intensity of this field to generate a prediction in an immediate area.
“At CDGA, we will always invest in proven technology that allows us to keep our members, staff and guests safe,” says Robert Markionni, Executive Director of CDGA. “The fact that 100 of our member clubs utilize Thor Guard is a great indication of their confidence, as well as ours, in the technology it provides when it comes to protecting golfers”.
As the longest-tenured company in the category globally, Thor Guard is present in 21 countries and has installed approximately 7,000 systems for golf courses, parks, schools and universities, cities and municipalities, air travel concerns, government agencies, mining and industrial companies, sporting events and broadcast media.
