After chatter circulated among Syracuse University students on campus Tuesday evening, the final email confirming the cancelation of classes arrived Wednesday at 12:40 p.m.
An email from university officials hit student inboxes at 6:01 p.m. last evening, informing the campus that The National Weather Service issued a Winter Storm Warning for Central New York from 10 p.m. Tuesday through 7 p.m. Wednesday. After monitoring the increase in snowfall earlier this afternoon, as well as the changing weather and road conditions, the decision to cancel all classes after 2:15 p.m. had students relieved, smiling and celebrating in academic buildings.
The text from SU Weather Alert followed up at 2:02 p.m., which reminded students to check syr.edu for further information regarding the storm. Accumulations include four to eight inches of additional snow by late afternoon, with a total snow amount estimated of eight to 12 inches.
