The University of Kansas will test its severe weather systems tomorrow afternoon.

At 1:30 p.m., various buildings throughout campus will test their sirens, said Capt. Schuyler Bailey, KU Public Safety Office.

The warning systems will cycle through two warnings followed by an all-clear announcement.

Those buildings testing their systems will have a notice posted outside to alert people that a test will occur at that time, Bailey said.

People are also advised that not to seek shelter during the test, but are encouraged to consider what actions they would take in the event of severe weather situation, Bailey said.

The University is conducting this test in conjunction with the National Weather Service’s Annual Tornado Drill.
