Tornado sirens to wail: Not to worry, only a test

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Those tornado sirens you’ll hear Thursday are only a drill to check whether the statewide warning system is working. The drills:

> 1:45 p.m.

> 6:45 p.m.

The drills, part of Severe Weather Awareness Week, are an opportunity for everyone to review personal emergency plans, said the National Weather Service.
