Potential Inclement Weather Update
January 22, 2026
TO: UMMC Faculty, Staff and Students
FROM: Dr. Jonathan Wilson, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Potential Inclement Weather Update
Updated National Weather Service models predict the possibility for severe wintry mix across central and north Mississippi beginning early this weekend with below-freezing temperatures continuing into next week.
Maintaining critical operations and keeping you and our patients safe are top priorities. We provide essential services to our communities and should maintain normal operations when possible.
At this time, there are no planned changes to class schedules or business hours. No alterations or cancellations to any standard operations are authorized. Should this change, details will be shared through email and other official communication channels, including AlertU. If you have not signed up to receive emergency notifications, you can do so using the instructions found here.
Until further notice, students should expect to maintain a normal schedule, including clinical assignments. Any changes to classes or other academic schedules will be announced through official channels.
All faculty and staff, including contract employees, should be familiar with the Inclement Weather and Emergency Conditions policy and the guidelines it provides in instances when normal operations are altered or you are unable to maintain your regular work schedule due to weather. Every employee should maintain a normal work schedule unless directed otherwise by their manager, following official institutional notification of change in operations.
We will monitor the weather, and timely alerts will go out via AlertU through the Everbridge app, as needed.
If operational changes are authorized by UMMC executive leadership and announced through an official channel, employees should refer to the policy for how their normal work schedule may be impacted, if at all. Managers can run a Workday report by searching for “Worker Inclement Weather Category” to see how each direct report is categorized in the three service levels – Green, Yellow or Red – which are defined in the policy. Employees can find their own Inclement Weather Category designation by going to their profile in Workday and clicking on “Job.”
Beginning Friday afternoon, the Student Union will serve as temporary lodging for approved employees who are assigned to the Red category and need to stay on campus to maintain their regular work schedule. Additional information about temporary lodging can be found in the inclement weather policy here. Employees should contact their manager to request temporary lodging at the Student Union.
Thank you.
