A-State Closing Early Today Due to Severe Weather Forecasts

The National Weather Service is forecasting a particularly dangerous severe weather event to move into the A-State campus area this afternoon, followed by historic rainfall amounts as we approach the weekend.  A-State will close today at 1 p.m. so that our students and employees can make arrangements to ride out the storms safely. 

The Office of Emergency Management has created a Linktree (https://linktr.ee/AStateSevereWx) with valuable resources for severe weather.  It includes links to the A-State Alert sign-up form, weather news sources, and shelter locations on campus and throughout Craighead County.

Provost's Inclement Weather Policy
A-State reminds all students that if they believe it is unsafe to attend class, please consult the Provost’s Inclement Weather Policy as it relates to classes, especially for our commuter students.

Helpful reminders for severe weather at A-State:

  • Stay weather-aware. Make sure you have a weather app on your phone with the appropriate notifications enabled.  A-State also sends text alerts when the NWS issues a weather warning for the campus area.  Visit the my.AState portal to sign up for our emergency text message system.

  • Have a plan for shelter. The Reng Student Union is our designated storm shelter on campus.  If you are unable to get to the union, find an interior space, free from windows, on the bottom level of your building.

  • Avoid floodwaters. Remember, it is never safe to swim in floodwater due to hidden dangers and contamination. In addition, do not attempt to drive through floodwater.  If you see water finding its way into a campus building or other water issues, please report it to your RA, Building Liaison, or Facilities Management at (870) 972-2066.  For after-hours reports, call UPD at (870) 972-2093.
