The Calloway County Office of Emergency Management plans to test the tornado warning sirens in Murray, Hazel and on the Murray State University campus on Wednesday morning, March 4th, at about 9:07 a.m. This test will coincide with the statewide tornado drill scheduled for the same date and time. This will be a great opportunity to practice your tornado safety plan, whether you are at home, school, or work. If there is a threat of severe weather at the scheduled time, the drill will be postponed to a fair-weather day.

The sirens are sounded whenever the National Weather Service issues a Tornado Warning that includes the cities of Murray or Hazel. These tests will allow officials to more accurately determine the proper functioning of each siren, which is difficult to do under actual threat conditions. The sirens are tested once each quarter, in accordance with National Weather Service guidelines and the County Emergency Plan.

It is wise to always be alert and prepared. If you have not yet registered for the County's Hyper-Reach alerting system, this would be a good opportunity to do so by going to https://hyper-reach.com/kycallowaysignup.html.
