See email for additional details.</H2 --> <p> </p> <p>Jefferson Lab's geographical location in Newport News, Virginia, makes it susceptible to a variety of severe weather events with the potential to damage property, adversely affect Lab operations and cause personal injury. <br><br>These include:</p> <ul style="margin-left:25px;"> <li>Severe thunderstorms</li> <li>Snow and ice</li> <li>Hurricanes and tropical storms</li> <li>Other major coastal storms (commonly called nor'easters)</li> <li>Extreme heat</li> </ul> <p>The National Weather Service provides near-term forecasts for these weather events with sufficient advance notice for site preparations and decisions about lab closings. Less predictable weather events, such as lightning and tornados, usually occur under specific conditions, and these precursor conditions are typically forecasted in advance. Heeding these advance notices, and using them to prompt Jefferson Lab weather preparations, is essential to reducing weather-related risk to equipment and people. At Jefferson Lab, personal safety takes precedence over other considerations. </p> <p> </p> </p> </blockquote> </div> </div> <div id="footer"> <div class="right">12000 Jefferson Avenue, Newport News, VA 23606<br /> Phone: (757) 269-7100 Fax: (757) 269-7363</div> Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility </div> </div> </body> </html>
