Metro K.C. Tornado Warning Sirens- NWS Weather Radio Alert Test Today



A
t 11am- here on the first Wednesday of the month as is done EVERY first Wednesday of a month (unless severe weather's expected) we will hear the test of the outdoor tornado warning ("civil defense") sirens.


Help your city- if there's a outdoor siren in your 'hood that doesn't go off or doesn't SHUT off- call your local fire or police department (non-emergency) and tell them.

Also- 11am on First Wednesdays are a good time to see if your NWS weather radio works in alarm mode.
