GAINESVILLE - An audible test of the Hall County severe weather warning system scheduled for Wednesday, Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. has been canceled due to inclement weather, according to officials with Hall County Central Communications/E9-1-1.

Sound tests are not conducted if there is a severe weather watch or warning in effect for Hall County. The tornado sirens are tested using the wail alert tone once every three months. Other than these previously announced tests, all sirens should be considered to be an actual tornado warning.

Hall County's Warning System is tested silently every morning at 9 a.m.
