Charlottesville, VA... February 10, 2026... Due to prolonged freezing temperatures, several reservoirs have partially frozen over. Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority would like to remind the community that all recreational activities on reservoir ice are strictly prohibited due to the serious and unpredictable dangers involved.

Even when ice appears solid, conditions can change quickly and without warning. Ice thickness can vary greatly over short distances and may not be able to support the weight of a person, pet, or equipment.

For your safety, please follow these important guidelines:

• Stay off the ice at all times. No amount of visible freezing guarantees safe conditions.

• Keep children and pets away from frozen shorelines. Snow-covered ice can conceal thin or unstable areas near the edge.

• Do not attempt to test ice thickness. Approaching or stepping onto the ice places you at immediate risk of falling through.

• Remain on designated trails and observation areas. Use only marked paths and avoid frozen banks, edges, or spillways.

• Never attempt a rescue on the ice. If someone falls through, call 911 immediately. If possible, reach from a safe distance using a long object such as a pole or branch. Do not go onto the ice.

• Understand the risks of cold-water exposure. Falling through ice can lead to cold shock and hypothermia within minutes, greatly reducing the chance of self-rescue.

RWSA appreciates the community’s cooperation in helping keep everyone safe during these cold weather snaps.

Tranquil Assuage will be closed Monday January 26th, due to inclement weather. This will give our snow removal crews time to clear the parking lot and sidewalks. We will reevaluate Monday evening for Tuesday’s opening.

If you know you will not be traveling in the weather this week, please let us know as soon as possible.

Thank you and stay safe.

Good Afternoon;
I hope everyone is doing well and are preparing for this wonderful gift Momma Nature is sharing with Virginia. We will reevaluate Sunday, but due to the impending inclement weather, specifically the change of adding sleet to the mix, most likely we will be closed on Monday, January 26th. This will give our landlord snow crews time to properly clear the parking lot and sidewalks.

We apologize for the inconvenience. We would prefer everyone to stay safe and give VDOT and crews time to clear the roads for safe travel.

If we close, we will reevaluate Monday evening for Tuesday’s January 27th’s opening. There is a chance for a round 2 smaller sleet/snow system in the forecast.

VDOT and the local first responders are advising motorists not to travel Sunday into Monday. A wintry weather mix will cause hazardous driving conditions. Snow is predicted to fall at a rate of an inch an hour.
Please let us know if you want to go ahead and reschedule. Cancellation fees do not apply due to inclement weather.
Thank you for your understanding.
Please stay safe and warm.
