In the event of an imminent hazard the alert tone \u2013 which differs from fire station alarms \u2013 will sound for a sustained 2 minutes. When the sirens sound, citizens should seek shelter immediately and then tune into local news media for additional information. Citizens should not call 9-1-1 to determine the hazard causing the activation. The alert tones are tested at 7:30pm the first Monday of every month. During the monthly test, the siren emits a single 10 second sustained alert tone. Residents should use this test as an opportunity to review emergency procedures. <\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>For more information, go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wicomicocounty.org\/es\/index.htm\">http:\/\/www.wicomicocounty.org\/es\/index.htm<\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A safety reminder from your Wicomico County Fire Chiefs Association: WICOMICO COUNTY TO LAUNCH CITIZEN WARNING\/ALERT SIREN SYSTEM The warning system is designed to alert residents and visitors of Wicomico County about an imminent hazard to include weather-related danger such as a tornado warning.
