The Severe Weather Warning sirens are tested once each month along with the City of Springfield in cooperation with the Greene County Emergency Management Office.  This exercise is normally conducted on the second Wednesday of each month unless it is cancelled due to inclement weather; then the exercise is postponed to the following Wednesday.

The State of Missouri conducts an annual statewide severe weather exercise in March.  The exercise date will be announced by the State Emergency Management Agency in Jefferson City, MO near mid February.  All Missouri State University campuses participate in this exercise.

During the exercise, Building Coordinators will monitor the buildings to confirm participation.
