Officials will test the warning sirens in Stutsman County Wednesday, April 26, as part of Severe Summer Weather Awareness Week, according to Jerry Bergquist, Stutsman County emergency manager and 911 coordinator.
The test is planned for sometime after 11 a.m. Sirens in Jamestown, Medina, Streeter, Buchanan and Cleveland will sound for about 4 minutes.
“This is mainly to get people into the idea we’re moving from winter to summer weather,” Bergquist said. “It gives people an idea how the sirens work and gives us a chance to test the equipment.”
