closures, or university operational changes.

unobtrusive site on the perimeter of campus.

®
University, and is one
of 320 colleges and universities around the country that have put special operations in
place to monitor and react to severe weather conditions, such as hurricanes, tornadoes
and storms. For more information, visit ut.edu/weather.
UT uses a campus-wide lightning prediction and warning system to help
alert the campus community about impending inclement weather and lightning on or
around the UT campus. The system emits an audible horn blast when atmospheric
weather conditions are likely to produce dangerous lightning strikes on or around
the campus. In these cases, the system will emit a 15-second warning blast and the
strobe lights on the units will illuminate as long as there is danger of a potential
strike. Once the lightning threat passes, three 5-second horn blasts will indicate an
“all clear,” and the strobe lights will turn off.
UT uses text and email messaging for the speedy notification of emergencies on
campus to students, faculty and staff. Emergency information is also posted on the
UT website as soon as possible for updates to the general public.
