    Dear Superior Township Residents,

    Washtenaw County’s 87 warning sirens will be tested at Noon on the first Saturday of every month from March through October. If there is a threat of severe weather on the day of a test, it will be cancelled.

     

    Except for scheduled testing, the sirens will be activated for the following emergencies:

      1.) The National Weather Service has issued a tornado warning.
      2.) A severe thunderstorm has been detected with damaging winds of 75 MPH or greater.
      3.) A hazardous materials accident requires immediate protective action by the public.
      4.) An attack on the United States is imminent, underway or has recently occurred.

     

    Warning siren activation is a signal to members of the public to immediately go indoors and monitor local Emergency Alert System media outlets for official information. Washtenaw County’s emergency broadcasters are:
