It’s late winter heading into springtime in Kansas which means all bets are officially off. There’s no telling what kind of weather we’re going to get from day to day (sometimes even minute to minute). So here’s a basic Weather Advisory Overview to keep in mind…
If the weather is severe enough for Nemaha Central Schools to be dismissed early, the library will close at 5:00 that day. We will also post on Facebook, KNZA radio station and WIBW TV if we close or open late due to weather. School closures for extreme weather do not guarantee the library will be closed, though we do reserve the option to open late if necessary. If city administrative offices are closed for weather, the library will also be closed.
Regarding sudden severe weather such as tornado watches or warnings, and severe thunderstorm watches or warnings, please be aware that Seneca Free Library is NOT a designated storm shelter for the city. If emergency sirens sound, the library will lock the doors and escort any patrons currently inside the building to the basement. Patrons not wanting to remain in the library during the storm event are free to leave at their own discretion, but will not be able to get back inside once the doors are closed.
It’s always best to check before heading out. Call us at 785.336.2377
