We just conducted the first of the monthly tests for the Outdoor Tornado Warning Siren system. It lasted approximately a minute and was a success. Just in case you didn’t hear them because you were indoors, the sirens are alarms sounded to alert people who are outdoors that a tornado may be imminent. They are not generally designed to be heard within a home or other building. However, we know that due to the topography of the City and the location of the sirens some of you will hear them while indoors.
The next test will be Wednesday, March 3rd at 5:00 p.m.
