The Wood County Communication Center has confirmed that the issue affecting radio signaling to the Marshfield storm sirens has been corrected.
The sirens were briefly tested at noon today, and we confirmed they are operating properly in multiple locations throughout the city.
Even with this fix, we strongly encourage everyone to have a second way to receive storm warnings, such as:
A NOAA Weather Radio
