Winter Weather Sunday Update
January 25, 2026
TO: UMMC Faculty, Staff and Students
FROM: Dr. Jonathan Wilson, Chief Administrative Officer
SUBJECT: Winter Weather Sunday Update
The severe weather system affecting much of the southeast continues to move through central and north Mississippi. Much of the northern part of the state has experienced significant impact from snow, sleet/icy rain and extreme cold, including power and water outages. Some areas in the northern part of the Jackson metro area also have experienced power outages.
UMMC Holmes County and UMMC Grenada are operating on generator power.
Because of power loss in these areas, adult and pediatric clinics from Lexington and northward (including West and Vaiden) will close on Monday. Managers should communicate directly to impacted employees.
The National Weather Service is not forecasting additional precipitation in the metro area, but temperatures are dropping and expected to reach the mid- to low-teens, with below-freezing temperatures continuing into Tuesday.
Mississippi Department of Transportation is actively adding de-icer to roads and reporting few closures.
At this time, there are no changes authorized to any Medical Center operations – including classes – in central (including the Jackson metro area) and south Mississippi for Monday. Any changes to business hours or school schedules will be announced through official communications.
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. If additional 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.
The Student Union is available to 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. Employees should contact their manager to request temporary lodging at the Student Union.
