Spring is well underway and we've already had one round of severe weather.  If you are a little behind on preparedness you might want to start with getting familiar with Amarillo's tornado sirens.

I've moved here from Lubbock over six years ago.  I've experienced firsthand how each city handles alerting its citizens of severe weather.

Amarillo is light years ahead of Lubbock in this regard, at least it was six years ago.  For their sake, I hope things have improved.

In case you've never heard them, here is a quick online test of the tornado siren by my apartment at 45th & Coulter.

This was only a test.  Stay safe this season!
