The National Weather Service Huntsville office is suggesting people in North Alabama be weather aware this afternoon and tonight because of potential bad weather which could include severe storms.
Calhoun students need to use the college alert system, CCC Alert to know about weather class cancellations.
Information about CCC Alert is found at the very bottom of the Calhoun homepage on the right side.
According to Calhoun, “CCC ALERT sends emergency messages to any device you choose – cell phone (voice and/or text messaging), landlines, and/or email accounts – in the event of an emergency that poses an imminent threat or danger to Calhoun Community College students, faculty, or staff. It will only be used for emergency communication purposes and will be used in conjunction with our current communication system.”
“Each semester after the drop/add period, we update CCC Alert with currently-registered students using contact information from their Banner accounts. Once Calhoun IT have loaded your information into the CCC Alert system, you must access it via the MyCalhoun portal. Once you click on the CCC Alert icon, you will be auto-logged in to the system. You may also download the AlertMe app by Regroup from the app store (Apple and Android) to receive alerts and update your contact preferences.”
