In a recent development in Ethridge, a small town, one of the two emergency warning sirens has undergone replacement. The reason behind this upgrade was the damage caused by lightning to the previous system. The new siren boasts 8 multi-directional speakers, a feature aimed at enhancing the volume output and improving the ability to alert citizens in case of emergencies, particularly tornadoes. Furthermore, plans are in place to install the second siren, which has already been ordered, in the near future. This proactive measure is part of the town’s ongoing efforts to bolster its emergency preparedness and ensure the safety of its residents.
