Severe Weather Awareness Week is designed to refresh, remind and educate everyone about the seasonal threats from severe weather and how to avoid them. It’s also a great time to make and practice your emergency plan and build or refresh your emergency preparedness kit.
Statewide tornado drills are April 11 at 1:45 p.m. for drills by schools and businesses and 6:45 p.m. for drills by families and businesses.
You may hear emergency sirens in St. Louis Park for three reasons:
- A tornado is spotted or developing in or near the city.
- Straight-line winds have been recorded in excess of 70 miles per hour.
- Testing on the first Wednesday of the month at 1 p.m.
