Exclamation Nuclear Power Sirens Are Going Off

I know they just did a test or I think they did a test two weeks ago but they are going off right now can someone direct me to the link on when they do alarm tests on their website

My nerves is hampering my hunt and normal tests are done right before 11. am every 3 months

Can anyone else hear them?

Default Yes I heard them

My boyfriend is freaking out and I am thinking it's no big deal. But why would they go off? It would be nice to know for future reference what you do if you hear them.

This would freak me out. I hope everything is ok and it's a false alarm.

I'm now living in Brunswick County, and everytime I am in Southport I always get skittish about the nuclear plant there, when I see the alarms and signs.

Keep us posted!

Mmmm...edited to add... do you think this has anything to do with Earth Day?

Well each year they send out nice calendars and they show when the siren tests are....

Needless to say this year we do not have the calendar as we replaced it with one my niece made on her trip through Europe!

I just checked the website and states they test the 2nd Wed of every quarter around 11:50 am. Nothing about the alarm now.
