The COVID-19 test site at CenturyLink Sports Complex is an outdoor testing facility. Lee County is expecting thunderstorms Sunday, and the weather is going to determine if the testing site can remain operational. Heavy rain, lightning or gusty wind can slow down operations, pause operations or shut down the site for the remainder of the day.
Vehicle occupants at the testing site during significant weather will need to follow the directions of National Guard or local law enforcement. If necessary, immediate safety announcements will be made to vehicle occupants via public address systems. The safety of on-site personnel is a priority.
