Press Release
September 1, 2026

Orange County Judge John Gothia announced today that all non-emergency Orange County offices will close at 2 p.m. due to impending weather conditions.
The early closure is a precautionary measure intended to help protect county employees and members of the public while providing county personnel with additional time to travel safely as weather conditions develop.
“The safety of our employees and the public is our highest priority,” said Orange County Judge John Gothia. “We are taking this precautionary step to allow everyone the opportunity to get home safely before conditions potentially worsen. We encourage everyone to remain alert, monitor the weather, and follow the guidance of local emergency management officials.”
Employees and members of the public are encouraged to:
• Monitor local weather conditions and official updates.
• Avoid unnecessary travel as conditions deteriorate.
• Follow guidance and instructions from local emergency management officials.
• Allow additional time for travel and use caution while on the roads.
County officials will continue to monitor weather conditions and will provide additional information as necessary.
