Longwood’s public address/siren warning and text messaging system will be activated today at 9:45 a.m. as part of a statewide tornado drill.

Due to hazardous weather conditions, Longwood University will open at 10 a.m. on Thursday, March 7. Essential personnel should report as directed by their supervisors.

After carefully assessing the weather forecast for Friday, Feb. 22, the university has determined that, at this time, conditions do not warrant closing. Employees and students should be aware of conditions in their areas and exercise appropriate caution. The online housing registration process scheduled for Friday will be conducted as planned, even if conditions worsen and the decision is made to close the university.

High winds, heavy rain and thunderstorms are predicted for the Farmville area from about 7-9 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30. Once these severe weather conditions begin, faculty, staff and students should remain safely indoors until the storm clears the area. Please keep in mind that power outages on campus are possible, and monitor weather reports for further updates on conditions.
