Given the possibility of severe weather approaching, the Fairfield Police Department would like to remind the citizens of our tornado siren procedures. Fairfield Police Department Telecommunicators will activate the tornado sirens in Fairfield and Wayne City when:
1. The national weather service issues a tornado WARNING.
2. Law Enforcement or trained spotters confirm a tornado.
3. Multiple citizen reports of a tornado.
The area in which the sirens will be activated is a rectangle from the WEST (Harmony-Marlow Road in Jefferson County) EAST to Klines Corner (CO RD 2400 E Wayne County) South (Blairsville Road- Hamilton County) to NORTH (CTY HWY 16 – Extension 161).
In the event the sirens sound, please go to a safe area. We encourage you tune to 104.9 FM WFIW or follow along with the WFIW Facebook Page for more information.
In the event of an EMERGENCY call 911.
