Inclement Weather Policy

Inclement Weather Policy at Strathearn Park

Rain:

Tours will not take place if it has rained heavily in the previous several hours and there are puddles of water and mud on the ground.
If according to accuweather.com (on website) the chance of rain is 90% or greater at the time that the tour is to take place, there will be no tour.
If it is actively raining (more than a drizzle) there will be no tour. Volunteers or staff will make the determination whether the Park will be opened.
If it is determined that the tours will NOT take place, the Visitors Center may still be opened at the discretion of the volunteers.
If it is raining heavily, or there is considerable mud on the ground which poses a hazard, volunteers or staff may decide to close the Park.

Hot Weather Conditions:

Because there is no air conditioning in the buildings, tours will not take place if according to accuweather.com the temperature is 95 degrees or hotter.
The Visitors Center will still be opened in hot weather.

Windy Conditions/Fire in Close Proximity:

If there is extreme wind or there is a fire in close proximity, and volunteers or staff determines that conditions pose a hazard, they may decide to close the Park.

Please call the Park at 805 526-6453 to check if there will be a tour if you suspect they may be canceled due to inclement weather!
