As AMS plans for the 32nd Conference on Weather Analysis and Forecasting (WAF)/28th Conference on Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP)/20th Conference on Mesoscale Processes, we continue to monitor and keep track of the ongoing COVID-19 situation. We are prioritizing the safety of presenters, attendees, program chairs, staff, and any volunteers who plan to attend in-person.
We are closely monitoring news and guidance from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and local health agencies regarding travel and events.
We recommend that you check back here on any recommendations and guidance for our in-person event.
All attendees (presenters, program chairs, session chairs, exhibit booth staff, volunteers, attendees, guests, press, AMS staff) will be required to agree to the AMS Meeting Health and Safety Policy and Waiver, before completing their registration. Any attendee who is not able to adhere to the in-person guidelines set forth in that Policy and Waiver, or in this Commitment to Care Statement, should plan to participate in the robust virtual options we are offering during this fully hybrid meeting. While vaccination and masking are not required at this time, we reserve the right to change these requirements at our discretion and at any time.
COVID-19 vaccinations as defined by the CDC are recommended for all in-person attendees.
Masks will be optional at this meeting. We do recommend that attendees wear a properly fitting mask when traveling and while attending the meeting.
In-person attendees who feel ill or experience any symptoms of COVID-19 before or during the meeting should not enter the AMS Meeting until the symptoms have resolved.
All travelers should follow recommendations set forth by the CDC for domestic and international travel as well as check requirements set forth by their travel providers (planes, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation).
If you test positive for Covid-19 within 10 days of attending the meeting please contact Jen Ives, AMS Director of Meetings ([email protected])
