To all,
Tonight, Adair County Emergency Management has experienced a hardware failure at the tower site that supports the county’s outdoor warning siren system.
Emergency Management personnel are actively working to diagnose and repair the issue as quickly as possible. During this time, the outdoor warning sirens may be unavailable or may not function as expected.
This situation serves as a reminder of why Adair County Emergency Management strongly encourages all residents to have multiple ways to receive weather alerts. Outdoor warning sirens are designed to alert people who are outdoors and should not be relied upon as the sole method for receiving severe weather warnings.
Residents are encouraged to utilize NOAA Weather Radios, local media outlets, and reliable weather alert apps on their mobile devices to stay informed during severe weather.
Adair County Emergency Management will continue working to resolve the issue and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
