The City of Breckenridge plans to test the tornado sirens, located at the fire department, at noon today, Wednesday, May 3.

At 11 a.m., the City will send out a message on the Code Red Alert, letting local residents know about the test.

The system will be used by the City of Breckenridge and/or Stephens County to alert local residents about emergency situations, including dangerous storms, boil water notices, missing child reports and more. When you sign up for CodeRed, you can supply them with a phone number — landline or mobile phone — for calls and/or text messages, as well as an email address for email alerts.

Although today’s test at noon is just a test of the sirens, there is a slight chance of thunderstorms today and up to a 50 percent chance of thunderstorms on Thursday, May 4, according to the National Weather Service.
