Officials are asking every Hoosier business, school and family to participate in the statewide tornado drill tomorrow morning. At 9:15 AM Central Time tomorrow, the NWS will issue a test tornado warning alert, which will be shared through most notification systems, including the statewide Emergency Alert System (EAS). The drill allows you to practice where to go, what to do and what to take so you are prepared in the event of a real tornado warning. There will be no follow-up alerts issued by the NWS to mark the end of the statewide tornado drill. It ends when your business, school or family feels that you have adequately practiced your safety procedures.
