Tornado Sirens in Florida?
 
Coming Soon...Tornado Sirens in Oviedo, FL 
After last years "close call" for its' residents, the City of Oviedo will become the first Florida municipality to be equipped with a tornado siren warning system at a total cost of $175,000. The system may be "old hat" to some midwestern transplants, but the system is to provide an an additional early warning for the community (alerts are currently issued on weather radio, television, and standard radio broadcast). The City has plans to install a total of eight sirens throughout the City by late summer or early fall of 2007. The current proposed locations include:
Alafaya Utilities Waste Water Plant Evans Elementary Sweetwater Park Long Lake Park Partin Elementary Lockwood Road (close to Simmons Road)   Aulin Avenue & S.R. 426 The main fire station next to City Hall The last two additional sirens are slated for City's eastern and southern borders The sirens will only be triggered when a tornado warning (not a tornado watch) is issued in Seminole County.  If a tornado "watch" is issued for your area, it means that a tornado is "possible." while if a tornado "warning" is issued, it means that a tornado has actually been spotted, or shows strongly on radar, and it is time to go to seeksafe shelter immediately (in Florida the term "hunker down" applies).
