Tornado Watch
A Tornado Watch is issued when severe thunderstorms and tornadoes are possible in and near the watch area. It does not mean that they will occur. It only means they are possible.
Additionally, reports suggest tonight there is a risk for large Hail in our area between 4pm and 2am tomorrow. Please be weather aware to not get caught in the hail. Take caution around windows as they can potentially pose a hazard if struck by hail.

USAO highly recommends that residents stay alert to the weather conditions by listening to local radio/television stations and that residents are aware of the closest severe weather shelter to their location. There are two on campus:
* Basement of the Student Center (Station 82),
* Basement of the Nash Library (Accessible)
Assistance for those with Accessibility Related Challenges
As the area is under a severe weather WATCH, those with accessibility related issues needing assistance to the accessible USAO severe weather shelter located in the basement floor of the Nash Library (Southern Entrance), are encouraged to do so now by contacting security through the following:
* (405) 222-8066
* security at usao.edu<mailto:security at usao.edu>
If this severe weather watch is upgraded to a severe weather WARNING, those choosing to stay who later want to be moved, will be moved only if the weather permits.
A reminder to ALL STUDENTS, according to the National Weather Service once the city of Chickasha sirens sound, it is too late to seek protection at a remote location. Everyone is encouraged to seek protection where they are immediately by going to the lowest level, most interior room of their location.
If you have any questions, please contact the Housing office at housing at usao.edu<mailto:housing at usao.edu> or by calling (405) 574-1311.
