I did my graduate work at Alabama. This afternoon Tuscaloosa was hit by a massive tornado. Three confirmed dead so far. The following is from the University website (www.ua.edu)
Severe Weather Advisory
UPDATED 8:03 p.m. - While no structural damage has been reported on the UA campus, power outages are widespread. Areas of the community where many of our off-campus students live have been impacted. The Student Recreation Center is available to students whose off-campus residences are damaged. Counseling services will also be available. Because of the power outages, Lakeside Dining is the only dining facility open on campus. Lines will be long, so please be patient. Please stay away from community areas that have experienced damage. If you must travel in Tuscaloosa, please be extremely careful. Obey all commands of law enforcement. A Crimson Ride bus will be available to transport students in the impacted areas to the Student Recreation Center. Please call 348-RIDE. Students and parents who have questions may call UA's emergency call center at 348-1001 or 877-408-1001.
