Sulphur Springs Emergency Sirens Will Be Tested January 13

January 13, 2023 – Emergency sirens will be tested in Sulphur Springs at noon today by the Sulphur Springs Emergency Management Office.

The test is to gauge the reliability of the emergency warning system and is conducted to find any potential flaws in the system so they can be corrected prior to a real emergency situation. The sirens could be sounded not only for weather warnings such as tornadoes, which are the most common in the area, but also in case of any emergency that could affect the safety and lives of citizens in Sulphur Springs.

Recent tests have shown the emergency sirens to be a ready source of warning in case of emergencies such as tornados or other threats to safety.

This will only be a test.
