Weather Policy

Thunder and Lightning

The City of Greeley uses the WeatherBug App to track nearby lightning strikes. All pool activities will be suspended when thunder or lightning is detected within a ten-mile radius. The pool must remain clear for 30 minutes after the most recent lightning strike within ten miles of the pool. Patrons must remain under a sheltered area away from the edge of the pool. Showering will be prohibited during inclement weather.

Rain and Wind

Heavy rain and wind can make it difficult to see the bottom of a pool or beneath the surface. If heavy rain or wind causes bottom obstruction, pools will be cleared and closed until the weather has stopped.

Temperature

In the event of cooler temperatures:
• Pools will close if the water temperature drops below the state code limit of 77°.
• Learn to Swim, and Aquatics Programming (Aqua Fitness, Special Events) will be canceled if the temperature is not forecasted to reach 65° by the start of the class or program.
• Outdoor Aquatic Facilities will not open for open swim if the air temperature is forecasted to be below 65° by opening. If the air temperature is not 65° by opening, we will reevaluate the forecast to determine if a late opening is possible. If the Air Temperature is not forecasted to reach 65° by 2 p.m., outdoor facilities will close for the day.

Refunds and Rain Checks

Greeley Recreation has the following policy:
• Refunds will not be issued for inclement weather.
• Rain checks (valid for another visit within 60 days) will be issued if the pool closes for more than two hours due to weather.
• If inclement weather occurs during the rental time, the renter may receive a partial refund for the time not used. The renter can reschedule or accept a full refund so long as the renter is notified before the rental start time.
