¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï

The “Weather Status” on the website header menu provides an update on university operations. 

• “¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï Open” status means campuses and locations are open and operating with normal hours.

• “¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï Delayed” status means campuses and locations are closed until a certain time.

• “¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï Closed” status means all campuses and locations are closed and in-person events/classes are canceled.

¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï will communicate all delays and closures via Code Purple. 

Current students, faculty, and staff will receive a text message and phone call via ¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï’s emergency notification system, Code Purple. Notifications will clearly explain whether the delay/closure pertains to daytime or evening classes/activities, along with the time they are expected to resume.

The same Code Purple notification will be posted as a pop-up alert on the homepage, along with key ¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï social media platforms (Instagram, Twitter, Threads, and Facebook).

¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï will communicate by approximately 6 a.m. and 2 p.m. 

For daytime classes/activities, the university will communicate with employees and students around or shortly after 6 a.m. For evening classes/activities, a notification will be sent by 2 p.m. 

¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï will reassure you when campuses are open. 

Sometimes the university will remain open when it’s snowing because snow removal teams in Facilities Management have cleared the roads, parking lots, and walkways. 

If it’s snowing and you’re still curious whether campus is open — or if you believe you missed a delay/closure notification via Code Purple — check the Weather Status on the header menu. This will clearly indicate that ¶¶Òô³Ô¹Ï is open, closed, or if classes/activities are delayed. Weather Status will remain on the website throughout the winter months.

Helpful reminders:

• Whenever there’s a delay or closure, it applies to ALL in-person classes, events, and activities at ALL Weber State campuses and centers. However, delays and closures do not apply to online classes — those should continue as scheduled.
   
• Expect campus to be open unless you receive notification via Code Purple. For reassurance, check “Weather Status” on the top menu of .
   
• Use your best judgment and take extra safety precautions during wintry conditions.
   
• When deciding whether to delay or close the university, factors like weather reports, the rate of snowfall, road conditions, local school district responses, and the ability to keep up with snow removal are all considered.
   
• Students — Check your syllabus to learn what your professors plan to do when campus closes. If you’re unsure, ask professors about changes to class schedules or assignments.
   
• Faculty — Inform students about any changes to class expectations or assignments. Online and virtual classes should continue as normal. 
   
• Staff and student employees — On especially snowy days, check with your supervisor to discuss remote work options, or to reschedule meetings and other events.
