Our building acts as a Storm Shelter for our area neighbors.

Our Facility manager lives in the area and will be here to open if the threat of tornado is within our area. With that said, you should know that activation of sirens are based on:

o National Weather Service (NWS) Tornado Warning

o Credible report of tornadic conditions

The Neighborhood alliance website stated:

“Activating all of the sirens may irritate some residents, but it is incumbent on us to err on the side of safety,” Oklahoma City’s Emergency Manager, Frank Barnes said. “We want to give all residents sufficient time to take protective actions, as well as have time for those who are traveling to know what they may be traveling into or to warn family  members who might be in the immediate warning area."

In addition to that, when the sirens sound at such a late time...or early time, whichever you would like to say, our facility manager will assess the situation and if the threat is indeed in our area or moving toward our area, then YES we will open up. We would also like to say, that if the threat is close...please take immediate precautions within your home. Driving in such conditions is NOT something that one should do and the local weathermen advise that as well. Our building will probably not be open in the wee hours of the night if the threat is not close to us or headed in our direction.

BE SAFE OUT THERE!
