[Stronsaylimpet] OIC update 2pm Sun 21 Jan

[Limpet editor]

/From OIC on Facebook:/
Hi folks
It’s nearly 2:00pm on 21 January 2024 – and I’ve got an update for you 
on the Amber weather warning tomorrow morning.
Here’s the key things you need to know:
��The Met Office has updated the times for the Amber weather warning for 
winds (expected to be 80mph to 85mph) from 9.00pm tonight, until 6.00am 
tomorrow morning (Monday).
��Currently, all schools will be OPEN tomorrow – but this will be 
re-assessed between 6.00am and 7.00am tomorrow and this may change if 
required – we’ll update you through the usual channels if that happens.
��Because the amber weather warning lifts at 6:00am, school transport 
should run as normal. This too will be reviewed, in line with policy, 
between 6:00am and 7:00am tomorrow morning.
��Some older pupils were due to sit prelim exams tomorrow. Should there 
be any disruptions as a result of the weather, the schools will be in 
touch with parents directly about the arrangements for these.
��Orkney Ferries sailings are impacted this afternoon and tomorrow 
morning – Papdale Halls of Residence will open at the usual time 
tonight. Keep an eye of Orkney Ferries for their latest updates
��Leisure and Culture facilities will be open as normal.
