Since we have all plans in place, we are going to PROCEED with the Adair County Tornado Drill Exercise as planned at 9:07amCT tomorrow (Wednesday, March 3rd). The Adair County Outdoor Warning Sirens will be activated at 9:07 as part of the drill. This will also serve as the monthly siren test.
The Statewide Tornado Drill was postponed. (See email below from Louisville NWS)

Due to the continued serious flooding across many parts of central and eastern Kentucky, the NWS offices serving the Commonwealth, and Kentucky Emergency Management Agency (KYEM), have agreed to POSTPONE the Statewide Tornado Drill. We hope to have information on a rescheduled date and time as soon as possible.
We encourage everyone to continue to review the educational material that will be posted through the rest of Severe Weather Awareness Week, and review your disaster plans in your home, school, and workplace. Watch our social media platforms for more information, including any rescheduled dates for the Statewide Tornado Drill.
Thank you for your understanding.
