Saturday April 4, 2026

Due to rain being in the area this afternoon and the chance for lightning, plus a successful test for the statewide drill last month, we're canceling today's siren test to avoid any confusion.

As part of Severe Weather Awareness Week, at 12:59pm on Wed 3/18/26, all cell phones in Ingham County will activate their "Wireless Emergency Alert" (WEA) feature.

In addition, at 1pm the countywide outdoor warning (tornado) sirens will be activated. THIS IS ONLY A TEST!

👏 @Ingham_EM just issued a well-written, well-targeted and well-formatted test Wireless Emergency Alert in support of a campus-wide alert system test by @MSUPolice.

Mobile devices needed to be configured to receive it, avoiding unnecessary disruption & confusion. #EMGTwitter

Thankfully smoke conditions are a little better today, but still in a range that will be unhealthy for people who have respiratory issues. Try to reduce the amount of time you spend outside, especially if involves a lot of physical activity. #miwx https://t.co/UkAxefSb40

[Ingham County Emergency Management @Ingham_EM]

Smoke from Canadian forest fires is at its peak today across Ingham County. Winds should start to improve conditions tomorrow (however new fires are starting which may change the outlook.)

Reduce your outdoor time today, especially if you are sensitive to respiratory issues.

March 23, 2022 UPDATE: The statewide tornado drill for today has been CANCELED by our state and National Weather Service partners. As a result, the outdoor warning siren system in Ingham County will NOT be activated and NOAA Weather Radios will not alert. #MIWX

Road temps in the Lansing area are sitting right around the freezing mark as reported by @MDOT_LanJxn snowplows.

As this next round of snow moves in, we'll start to see more of that stick especially on rural and untreated roads.

[Ingham County Emergency Management @Ingham_EM]

The snow has only just begun accumulating, with 3-6" expected overnight. Numerous crashes have been reported, and roads will remain slick as temperatures continue to fall through the 20s.

KEEP IT SLOW ON ICE AND SNOW!
