The National Weather Service has issued a Tornado Watch for Lee County, including Auburn University, until 11:00 PM.

Both Greene Hall (Pet friendly) and the RBD Library are open as shelter locations.

A Tornado Watch means conditions are favorable and this is the time to review your tornado plan. Immediate action isn't needed at this time, but make sure you have several ways to access reliable weather information.

If a Tornado WARNING is issued, seek shelter immediately and proceed to the lowest floor of your home/building, find an interior space away from windows.
