Snow continued through much of the day Saturday and the winter weather advisory has been extended through 10 a.m. Sunday. Please exercise caution, watch for slippery areas and be very careful when driving. Read this note for details.
A winter weather advisory remains in effect for the Elon area through 10 a.m. Sunday. Refreezing of residual snow, slush and water is expected as skies clear late this evening. This will result in patches of ice on roads, creating a travel hazard through Sunday morning. Area bridges, overpasses, parking lots and sidewalks will be most prone for icing. Elon’s physical plant staff have worked to clear sidewalks and apply deicer and will continue to monitor the campus. Please exercise caution when walking or driving, as slippery spots may remain in some areas.
This winter weather is a good reminder to sign up for the university systems that provide text and email notifications to members of the Elon community:
