Weather & Ground
Weather and ground conditions in Upton County
Upton County is at the western edge of the Edwards Plateau, with rocky, shallow soils and mesas. Driving ground rods can be difficult, so grounding may need alternative layouts.
Storms cross open rangeland where ranch homes and barns are often the tallest structures.
A lightning protection system protects the structure; it does not replace personal lightning safety.

Upton County lightning protection FAQ
Can you ground a system on rocky Edwards Plateau ground?
Yes. Where rods can't be driven deep, we use ground rings or other electrode layouts designed for shallow rock.
Do you protect ranch barns and shearing or working sheds?
Yes. Metal barns and sheds need proper bonding and grounding, with air terminals sized to the building.
Do you serve Midkiff and the northern oilfield area?
Yes, along with Rankin and McCamey.
Do you protect oilfield shops?
Yes. Metal shops need proper bonding and grounding, and we follow site safety rules.
