Hello everyone,
We have received multiple calls advising people have been walking across the Altus City Reservoir. This is not safe, the ice is too thin and the water is extremely cold and deep. Please advise your family and friends to stay off the water.

In 24°F (-4°C) weather while wet, significant hypothermia can set in within 30 minutes to an hour, and death can occur in 1 to 3 hours or potentially less. The specific time depends heavily on individual factors and conditions.

Out of an abundance of caution due to the forecasted winter storm, Altus Public Schools will be closed on Friday, January 23, 2026. Please stay warm and stay safe, Bulldogs!
