City of Duluth to participate in Tornado Drill Day on Thursday, April 10

 

 

[DULUTH, MN] For decades, the state of Minnesota has conducted Severe Weather Awareness Week in partnership with the National Weather Service and local governments, including Duluth and Saint Louis County. Severe Weather Awareness Week is April 7 through April 11 in 2025, and Thursday, April 10 is Tornado Drill Day. On Thursday, the City of Duluth, along with the City of Floodwood, will take part in a statewide tornado drill as part of Severe Weather Awareness Week events. Participating counties and municipalities are encouraged to sound their outdoor warning sirens at 1:45 pm and 6:45 pm so residents may practice their tornado sheltering plans.

 

The City of Duluth encourages residents to take advantage of the practice warning sirens on Thursday, April 10 to practice their tornado sheltering plans and discuss a warning response with their families.
