IGTornado warning 🗣️
In the United States, tornado sirens are used as part of an outdoor warning system to alert people when dangerous weather is approaching. These sirens are most commonly activated when the National Weather Service issues a tornado warning, meaning that a tornado has been detected on radar or has been seen by observers.
Sirens may also sound if a funnel cloud or tornado has been confirmed near a community, or if it is expected to reach the area soon. In some cases, local authorities can activate them when there are extremely strong winds (usually over 70 mph), large hail, or other serious hazards.
It is important to understand that these sirens are designed mainly for people who are outdoors. When someone hears a tornado siren, they should immediately go inside, seek shelter, and get more information from sources like weather apps, radio, or television.
