Use extra caution when traveling to and on campus today, Thursday, Aug. 18, as heavy rain continues in Wilmington and surrounding areas. The heavy rains may cause high water in areas prone to flooding and/or localized flooding in areas adjacent to the campus.

Conditions may be more hazardous for those traveling into Wilmington from outlying areas. Leave extra time to make commutes and do not attempt to drive through standing water.

Be aware of possible hazardous conditions if rains are heavy, particularly in areas prone to flooding such as the intersection of Reynolds and Cahill Dr., New Centre Drive, Racine Drive, Seahawk Landing, Honors Hall Parking Lot and Parking Lot E. Some of these areas may be closed to traffic if heavy rain occurs. As a precaution, you may wish to relocate your vehicle from these flood prone areas.
