I Never Really Get Used To The Storm Sirens Being Tested At Noon On Saturdays…

I know what they are doing after they start sounding. And it’s a good thing, there was a small tornado about 12 miles north of here on November 3rd. It’s on the way to when I go to my doctors in Oklahoma City. But I forget for some reason and see the damaged (destroyed) homes and other buildings. Makes me feel stressed each time. I don’t know why they haven’t gotten started removing the damaged homes yet, it’s been 3 months, maybe waiting for insurance to payout or something.

We got ours tuesday mornings at 10am, but only mid may through early september, and they are never on 10am on the dot, sometimes they even forget to sound them a couple two, three weeks in a row, sound a week or two then forget an entire month, I think our local fire chief is a drunk.

@NativePortlander1970 Every month has had at least one tornado at one time or another in Oklahoma. So they test year round. November tornadoes are really rare but it happened.
