Adrian to test storm sirens this evening

The Adrian Fire Department will be testing the storm/tornado warning sirens this evening at 6:00 P.M.

Maintenance and repairs have been completed on (2) of the six sirens that we have, and a follow up test is needed to ensure that everything is back online and in good working order. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause, and we appreciate your patience with us as we work to resolve the matter.

Thank You,
