Hey @spann, in the latest iOS update, there’s a new “Always Play Sound” setting in Emergency Alerts that ensures alerts sound even in Do Not Disturb. Also, a new Local Awareness feature improves accuracy, timeliness, and reliability of alerts.

Debunking Weather Folklore: It is NOT recommended to open your windows to "equalize pressure" in a tornado. By doing so, you only open the interior of your living space to invite tornadic winds inside the structure. This will surely lead to more devastating results.

UGA continues to monitor the development of the winter storm heading toward our area very closely. Based on updated weather models, we are moving to an early release with modified operations at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, January 21.  All in-person classes, campus events and activities will be canceled for the remainder of the day.

Faculty members are expected to ensure continuity of instruction for afternoon/evening classes by making up for the missed material through alternative means. This may include online lectures, readings, assignments, or other instructional activities, which are clearly communicated to students.

Statement from President Jere W. Morehead:

I am deeply saddened by the devastating attack in New Orleans overnight, and I extend my sincere condolences to the victims, their families, and all those affected by this terrible tragedy.

At this point, we have learned that a University of Georgia student was critically injured in the attack and is receiving medical treatment. I have spoken to the student’s family and shared my concern, support and well wishes on behalf of the entire UGA community. I would like to express my gratitude to all the first responders who moved so quickly to help those affected by this senseless act of violence, as well as to the medical personnel who are caring for the injured.

As we continue to hold the victims and their families in our thoughts and prayers, the University will do everything in its power to support those in our community who have been impacted by this unspeakable event.
