KINGSTON, Jamaica — Competition on the closing day of the ISSA/GraceKennedy Boys and Girls Athletic Championships was temporarily brought to a stop on Saturday following deteriorating weather conditions.
Event organizers announced shortly after 3:30 p.m. that activities would be suspended for approximately two hours due to safety concerns. The decision was primarily influenced by frequent lightning strikes detected in the surrounding area.
Overhead, heavy clouds gathered across the venue, while light but steady rainfall began affecting the track. Officials acted promptly, prioritizing the safety of athletes, spectators, and staff as conditions worsened.
Further updates on the resumption of events were expected following an assessment of the weather situation.
