Episode Details

Etowah Countys EMA Director, Jim Slick, recently conducted a full test of the outdoor tornado sirens, revealing some issues. The sirens fired off one by one instead of simultaneously. Slicks team is now identifying and addressing the problematic sirens. While sirens are not the sole warning system, Slick encourages residents to utilize weather radios, cell phone alerts, internet feeds, or TVs for severe weather updates. Each town is responsible for its siren repairs, and the county is working closely with them to ensure timely fixes. Despite the current challenges, the county remains safe and is committed to improvements for the next storm season.
