Governor Eric Holcomb has proclaimed March 13-19, to be Severe Weather Preparedness Week in the state of Indiana.
On Tuesday, March 15 at approximately 10:15 a.m., we will participate in the statewide test of communication systems in conjunction with the National Weather Service. We will conduct a full activation of the tornado weather sirens in Clinton County.
In the event of severe weather, the test will be postponed to Wednesday, March 16 if conditions warrant.
It is a good time to talk with your family about what to do in the event of severe weather. A Tornado Watch means conditions are possible. It does not mean that they will occur. A Tornado Warning is issued when a tornado is imminent. When a tornado warning is issued, seek safe shelter immediately.
We would like to remind everyone that we offer a free service utilizing Nixle. We send out Nixle notifications regarding events happening in Clinton County such as severe weather, road closures due to construction or accidents, etc. To receive alerts via text simply text your zip code to 888777 to opt-in. If you choose to receive emails, you can go to Nixle.com and create an account. We actually encourage people to now download a free app called Everbridge where you will receive all of our Nixle notifications via the Everbridge application.
