The National Weather Service Peachtree City predicts showers and thunderstorms will sweep across the area during the day Tuesday, January 9. Some storms may be strong to severe, particularly south of a Columbus to Eatonton line. Severe thunderstorms that develop will be capable of producing damaging wind gusts and a few tornadoes. 

The GCSU campus will have a delayed opening Tuesday morning, January 9 with normal operations resuming at noon Tuesday. All classes and campus events that begin before noon are cancelled. 

Dining services at The Max will continue as normal. A limited breakfast menu will be delivered to the Pizza Hut area in the West Campus Center and served from 8 to 11 a.m. for West Campus residents. 

Shuttle service will not run until normal operations resume. Students should check the Passio GO app for the most up to date information.

The safety of our students, faculty and staff remains the highest priority as we track the storms. Any further delays or cancellations will be made after an 8 a.m. weather briefing Tuesday morning.

Essential personnel should report to campus as the weather allows and make a prudent judgement as to travel. 

In the event of emergency circumstances requiring immediate action, a GC Alert will be issued. Please go to the GCSU Public Safety website to learn how to ensure that your communications preferences with GC Alert are current.
