Memphis/Shelby County Emergency Management Agency

Outdoor Warning/Tornado Siren System

Tornado Warnings are issued by the National Weather Service when a tornado has been sighted by an officially trained weather spotter or is indicated by Doppler radar. Tornado Warnings are broadcast by local media and by NOAA weather radio. Outdoor Warning/Tornado sirens operated by the Memphis/Shelby County Emergency Management are located in strategic locations throughout Memphis and Shelby County including the cities of Millington, Lakeland, and Arlington.

When a tornado warning is issued for any portion of the county, Memphis/Shelby County Emergency Communications will activate the sirens. Once activated, all sirens within Memphis and Shelby County will sound. This means if a tornado warning is issued for the eastern half of Shelby County, all sirens will be activated.

DO NOT CALL 911 when you hear a Outdoor Warning/Tornado siren. Instead, first tune into local media and/or your Weather Radio. If, after doing so, you believe the siren activation is a malfunction contact the appropriate persons listed for your area below. Tornado Sirens located in the cities of Germantown, Collierville, and Bartlett are activated by the respective city and are not controlled by the Memphis/Shelby County Emergency Management.

City of Memphis: The sirens are tested every Wednesday at 3:30 pm, unless there is inclement weather. If one of the sirens does not sound, you can report it to at 901-515-2606.
