    Ours goes off every Saturday at noon. But that's just for test.

    It went off last week, but it's because we have a new dispatcher who hit the tornado siren instead of the fire siren.

    The last time it went off for real was in October.

    Tornado season is coming up though.

    last summer we had about 4 or 5 serious tornado warnings, so they went off. We actually had to go to a shelter the first time. The tornado hit, but it was around 30 miles from our town...

    Why are they sounding then for thunderstorms? in the event that they shop doing that no person will take it heavily while that's a genuine twister. @Gia - bypass fck your self dumbass. They under no circumstances sound twister sirens the place I stay till a warning has been issued. that's twister ALLEY so in the event that they sounded them every time the circumstances have been actual it would be going all of the time and no person might care approximately them anymore. human beings listed under are already apathetic sufficient approximately it as you will discover on the hurricane chaser photos of Joplin with all of us sitting in quickly foodpersistent thrus after the damn warning became already issued and sirens have been going off.
