Question for the NC people. Do your towns turn on the sirens every time it storms? There was no tornado warning for my location that night but the sirens were going off for about 10 minutes. Why? Every time there's a strong thunderstorm they turn the fucking things on.

I'm originally from Kansas. When they turn on the sirens there it's because there was either a funnel cloud sighted or there is a tornado on the ground in the area. I've almost been retrained to ignore the sirens now.
I'm in Greensboro and they only have the flash on the news. I woke up and the TV was off so I thought "That tv is old and it blew up." and rolled back over too sleep. My dog's were all so sleeping I assume as they didn't bark or anything.


My friends son and his wife were up and the flash news on the tv said there were tornadoes so they got into the bathtub and had a matters over them, thankfully nothing happened there.
