Archived Events Monthly Siren Test Postponed to April 8th
Due to the installation of 30 new sirens throughout Chatham County, the Chatham Emergency Management Agency's (CEMA) scheduled monthly emergency warning siren test has been postponed from April 1st to April 8th. All of the new sirens will be installed and ready for activation by Wednesday, April 8th.
The Emergency Warning Siren System is used by CEMA to alert residents who are outdoors of potentially dangerous conditions. Upon activation of this system, the siren will produce a steady 3-minute tone which indicates an emergency condition exists in your area.
Chatham County residents who are outside should seek shelter and tune to their NOAA weather radio or local radio or television station for more information.
The Emergency Warning Siren System is scheduled to be tested at noon the first Wednesday of each month. If you would like to receive an email notification of scheduled siren tests or to learn more about this program, please subscribe to CEMA Alert by visiting www.ChathamEmergency.org.
