the only time the siren test isn't done is if there is a possibility of severe weather. so paradoxically no siren on wed == PANIK SKY LOOKING

My town has a tornado siren at noon every weekday. We have gotten to the point, where, if we are home, we all yell TORNADO! (It once went off at 3am, which was one of the scariest things that I've ever experienced)

We had a power outage that woke me up, (transformer blew near our house) and when I got up to find a flashlight, the siren went off and I've never been so scared, lol.

I live in new Zealand and we use those sirens for volenteer fire service to call the fire fighters to the station, I have heard many a story of tourists getting a bit of a scare hearing them
