Wyandot County citizens were informed about new procedures that are in place when it comes to Tornado Warnings.

According to a release from Wyandot County Sheriff Todd Frey, if the National Weather Service issues a tornado warning, the Sheriff’s Office will activate the Emergency Warning Siren System.

It will then be re-activated every 15 minutes thereafter until the warning has been canceled.

This is a new procedure which will take effect immediately. 

The Sheriff’s Office will still be conducting monthly testing on the 1st Wednesday of every month at 10:00 AM.
