The audible test of Hall County's severe weather warning system has been scheduled for 10 a.m. Wednesday, Aug. 22.
 
The sirens will sound for approximately three minutes, according to a notice from Hall County government. 

The tornado sirens are tested using the wail alert tone once every three months. Other than these previously announced tests, all sirens should be considered to be an actual tornado warning. Hall County's Warning System is tested silently every Wednesday at 10 a.m.

"Severe weather can be unpredictable and extremely dangerous," said Casey Ramsey, interim director of Hall County Emergency Management. "By taking steps to prepare before it strikes, you can ensure that you and your family stay safe. I encourage all Hall County residents to implement safety measures at home and at work so they will be ready when severe weather strikes."
