Severe Weather Awareness Week set for March 21-27 The Ohio Spring Severe Weather Awareness Week begins March 21. The annual statewide tornado drill is scheduled for Wednesday, March 24 at 9:50 a.m. At that time, every county will sound its warning sirens and an Emergency Alert System test message also will broadcast. Schools are encouraged to practice their severe weather plans during the statewide tornado drill. If the drill interferes with testing periods, or if schools are not in session because of spring break, they must schedule another time to practice their tornado drills in accordance with Ohio Revised Code (Section 3737.73).
