Inclement Weather Notice

Out of an abundance of caution with the impending inclement weather, the Chickasaw Nation will close offices at 2 p.m. tomorrow, Friday, January 23, 2026, to allow extra time for people to travel home. We will continue to actively monitor the weather and make adjustments if an earlier closure time is needed.

Chickasaw Nation Department of Health (CNDH) employees should follow CNDH inclement weather protocols and policy. Chickasaw Nation Department of Commerce businesses should follow their line of support regarding inclement weather guidance.
