At FIU, we ​continue to monitor Tropical Depression Fred, which is expected to bring gusty wind, heavy rain and ​potential flooding to South Florida ​and our community this weekend.

Areas on our campuses may flood, including our roadways. Please use caution. If you see an area that is flooded, we ask that you report it to FIU Police at 305-348-2626.

Please monitor local media and pay attention to updates from the National Hurricane Center throughout the next few days.

FIU has a communication protocol to keep the community informed about university operations during emergencies, including storms. Please look for emails, follow FIU on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and check FIU News and monitor local media for updates.

Storm preparation may be a new experience for many members of our university community. For tips on what to do, please visit the FIU Department of Emergency Management website or Miami-Dade County’s Hurricane Guide.
