Vertical lines connecting in latex tables - agujournal2018 cls

Question

I am using the agujournal2018 cls files (available here). To make it easier while I am drafting, I want lines in tables. How can I make the vertical lines and horizontal lines connect in tables?

I tried to use the \aboverulesep=0ex \belowrulesep=0ex answer relevant to booktabs here with no luck

MWE

\documentclass[draft]{agujournal2018}
\usepackage{apacite}

\usepackage{url} %this package should fix any errors with URLs in refs.
\usepackage{lineno}
\linenumbers
%%%%%%%

\draftfalse

\journalname{Enter journal name here}
\begin{document}

 \begin{table}
 \caption{Time of the Transition Between Phase 1 and Phase 2$^{a}$}
 \centering
 \begin{tabular}{l  | c}
 \hline
  Run  & Time (min)  \\
 \hline
   $l1$  & 260   \\
   $l2$  & 300   \\
   $l3$  & 340   \\
   $h1$  & 270   \\
   $h2$  & 250   \\
   $h3$  & 380   \\
   $r1$  & 370   \\
   $r2$  & 390   \\
 \hline
 \multicolumn{2}{l}{$^{a}$Footnote text here.}
 \end{tabular}
 \end{table}

\end{document}

I realise that the journal doesn't have these lines and I will need to remove them before submitting, but it will make drafting a LOT easier if can lay the tables out with lines.

Answer 1

The agujournal2018.cls document class mentions this:

  %% This puts extra space between horizontal lines in tables.
  %% If you want to use vertical lines in tables, you should use
  %% \savehline rather than \hline, otherwise the vertical and
  %% horizontal lines will not abutt.

  %% \noalign is a command that allows the uses to put something
  %% between lines in a table.
\let\savehline\hline
\def\hline{\noalign{\vskip3pt}\savehline\noalign{\vskip3pt}}

So, you can use \savehline rather than \hline, or use this construction:

\let\savedhline\hline % Store default \hline
\documentclass{agujournal2018}
\let\hline\savedhline % Restore default \hline
