LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) – Lexington Emergency Management will test its network of outdoor warning sirens  Wednesday, Nov. 7 at 10 a.m.

If you live near a park or golf course, expect to hear the outdoor siren sound a series of chimes followed by a voice announcement “This is a test”

This is a regularly scheduled test. There is no emergency and officials are asking the public not to call 911.

Remember: Lexington’s outdoor siren system is designed to alert people who are outdoors. The siren system is not intended to alert persons inside homes, apartments or office buildings.

This test may be canceled if adverse weather conditions exist.
