A text alert sent to CR students stated that the main entrance to the campus is flooded and expected to be closed the remainder of the day. However, the adjacent entrance is reported to be accessible and the preferred entrance of use due to the flooding.
The alert stated, “Tompkins Hill Road at Beatrice is flooded, however the highway remains open and we have not received any indication of forecasted highway closures at this time.”
The bus routes are not currently impacted by the flooding.

Heard you guys up there are getting pounded. Me, I’m down here in LA (that’s right, I’m an LA puke), and we’re still waiting for it. And it will come, although it may not pack the same punch as what you’re experiencing. Sacramento’s also supposed to get flooding. But, as it moves south, it’s supposed to lose a lot of its energy. I say “it,” but it’s really “they,” as it’ll ultimately be two major storm systems, one after the other. Keep your collective chin up. Remember: El Nino. Another wet season, like last year’s. And this is still the early part of it. So, in the following weeks and months, as you’re continuing to get pounded, ask yourselves whether you’d rather be up there, amongst the redwoods, at the southern tip of the largest rain forest in North America, or down here in LA. Crowded, breathing in ozone?
I grew up down there, and now lived up here for the past 44 yrs. I would much rather be here, thank you. I get culture shock when I’m down south
