MCAS Cherry Point Winter Storm Update — Reporting Guidance Tuesday, Feb. 4, 2026
On Wednesday, Feb. 4, 2026, Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point will continue to operate under a Winter Storm Condition-Recovery status. MCAS Cherry Point will be open to essential personnel only, enabling tenant commands to inspect their facilities and prepare for reopening in the coming days.
While much progress has been made in restoring the installation to normal operations, officials are aware that road hazards still exist outside the installation along most personnel commuting routes.
All MCAS Cherry Point personnel and staff are directed to continue to telework to the maximum extent possible. Each individual must communicate with their immediate supervisor or chain of command to confirm accountability, obtain telework guidance, and clarify specific reporting requirements. Personnel from tenant organizations should also communicate with their respective commands for specific instructions.
Fleet Readiness Center East will be closed to non-essential personnel. Personnel should refer to their command’s social media for specific updates.
Navy Health Clinic Cherry Point will be closed. Personnel should refer to their command’s social media for specific updates.
Closures, Modified Services
Slocum and Cunningham Gates remain closed; essential personnel must enter the air station through the Main Gate. The MCCS Troop Store and MCX Package Store Gas Station will be open and operate from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. The Child Development Centers, MCX, and Commissary will remain closed. The Cherry Point Mess Hall will maintain regular hours and will continue to serve non-military, civilian essential personnel.
Command leaders stress that community members do not travel unless necessary to avoid burdening area road-clearing operations.
