University Monitoring Winter Weather and Travel Conditions for Monday, Feb. 17, 2025

Monday, February 17, 2025, By News Staff
Share

Syracuse University is monitoring weather conditions pertaining to the Lake Effect Snow Warning and High Wind Warning currently in effect. This effort includes reviewing the most up-to-date National Weather Service data and forecasting, and consulting with an independent meteorologist about what to expect.

Based on current conditions, the University expects to remain open and operational today.

Although Syracuse University rarely closes for inclement weather, individuals, many of whom travel to campus from outside the City of Syracuse, must make personal decisions based on a risk assessment related to travel. Employees are encouraged to take precautions and use good judgment when traveling to/from work. Faculty, graduate students who teach courses, and staff concerned about their safety should contact their department chair or supervisor, respectively.

Any change in the University’s operating status will be announced via the University’s emergency broadcast notification system and will carry the notice SU WEATHER ALERT. Please be sure your Orange Alert settings are always up to date in MySlice.

SU WEATHER ALERT information will be announced via the following communications channels:

  • via text message;
  • via a “crawl” on campus TV monitors and University websites;
  • on X: @SyracuseUNews and @SyracuseDPS;
  • on Facebook: @SyracuseUniversityNews and @SyracuseDPS;
  • on news.syr.edu and Syracuse.edu; and
  • via Syracuse University public radio station WAER-FM/88.3 and other local media outlets.

Only Syracuse University’s Internal Communications and Media Relations teams are authorized to transmit to the news media and the campus community announcements about closings, work-schedule changes or class-start delays.
