There are common misunderstandings about outdoor sirens, so here's the facts:

Outdoor sirens are activated by local city or county officials, NOT the NWS. Sirens are for outdoor warning purposes, and are not meant to be heard indoors or to wake you up at night! More info below:

Really pleased with how much we were able to see with all of the light pollution.

[NWS Chicago @NWSChicago]

Brief tornadoes may occur in the warned area! You will NOT see rotation as it is raining very heavily in the warned area, as well. #ILwx

[Jessica Neill @congoblue]

@WxZachary 100% agree

Hey @nbc @NBCOlympics @peacock why do the primetime replays keep kicking me out, making me restart the app bc I can't click anything, and then when I go back in the replay is entirely different than the one I was watching? Super disappointing to pay for this.

@NWS Thank you NWS

[Jessica Neill @congoblue]

@teachnfishpkp Perhaps later in the week, but I think most, if not all, of the NWS offices that neighbor NWS Paducah are out doing damage surveys in their coverage areas.

This is a great resource to find open shelters in TN #tornado #tnwx

[Tennessee Emergency Management Authority (TEMA) @TennesseeEMA]

If you or someone you know is in need of a safe place to go, storm shelters are beginning to open for the severe weather expected to impact the state.

As more storm shelters open, the map will update. You can access these locations on our website at: https://t.co/PJCWPeA9SJ
