Georgia Tech officials announced October 5 that Georgia Tech-Savannah would be closed the following two days because of the approaching Hurricane Matthew.
The storm is currently a category three and is expected to still be a significant storm when it reaches the Savannah area. Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal issued a state of emergency for 13 counties in South Georgia in advance of the storm.
