The monthly test of the all-hazard Statewide Outdoor Warning Siren System, coordinated with the test of the Live Audio Broadcast segment of the Emergency Alert System, will be taking place at 11:45 a.m. on Thursday, April 1, 2021.
The all-hazard Outdoor Siren Warning System for Public Safety is used to notify the public during emergencies. During the test, all Statewide Outdoor Warning Sirens will sound a one-minute Attention Alert Signal while a test of the Live Audio Broadcast segment of the Emergency Alert System will be conducted simultaneously.
There will be no exercise or drill accompanying the test.
If this siren tone is heard in circumstances other than a test, residents are instructed to follow emergency information and instructions provided by official government channels. This may be in the form of a local radio, television station broadcast, and/or cellular Wireless Emergency Alert.
