Tornado: sirens. Tornado watch: sirens. Tornado warning: sirens. Microburst: sirens. Flash flooding: sirens. Equipment malfunction: sirens.
That last one happened a couple of weeks ago at around 1:30 am. The police dispatcher got particularly irate at the number of calls.
Good luck everybody. Stay safe.
Tornado “outbreak”?
Did the CDC put this out?
Who is in charge of Tornado containment and quarantine?
A number of schools in OK have cancelled classes for today (Monday).
The SPC (Storm Prediction Center) has the area shaded as “High” which is not seen very often.

I’m in that high risk area. So far, sunny and warm.
Fingers crossed.
I realize that's not going to help today, but I just thought I would mention it. Good luck out there!
" ...SUMMARY...
An outbreak of tornadoes, some potentially long-track and violent, is expected today into this evening over portions of northwest Texas into western and central Oklahoma. More-isolated but still potentially dangerous severe weather, including tornadoes and destructive winds and hail, is possible in surrounding parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Arkansas."
Seeing other forecasters suggesting things making me believe this could be the worst day since Alabama's April 27, 2011 outbreak.
