The university will resume classes and normal business operations at 5 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 23.

University officials continue to closely monitor weather developments. Stay weather aware and use extreme caution, particularly when traveling outdoors. Students are strongly encouraged to return to the Tallahassee area before road conditions are anticipated to deteriorate Tuesday evening. There is a potential for road closures around the region, that could include Interstates, Tuesday night and Wednesday morning.

Residential housing operations will continue throughout the closure. Seminole Dining locations will operate on an adjusted schedule. Updated operating hours will be posted on https://t.co/oO5awDcaMg and https://t.co/YyiIHIuy2O.
