WHITEMAN AIR FORCE BASE, Mo. --  With hazardous weather predicted for tomorrow (Tuesday February 4) it is important for 442d Fighter Wing staff members to remember the following resources available for checking reporting instructions for the base.

1) Call 1-800-260-0253 and choose Option 6, or

2) Check the 442 FW Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/#!/442ndFighterWing

Unlike on UTA weekends, we DO FOLLOW 509th BW guidance for base closure/early dismissal Monday thru Friday.

With that being said, we must emphasize the fact that if conditions in your area are too bad to travel, PLEASE don't risk your safety by driving. Let your supervisor know if conditions in your area are unsafe and leave will be approved. This decision is yours and yours alone.

Above all else we want you to use good judgment and be safe. If you don't feel like you can travel safely. Stay off the road. Your safety is paramount.
