Tornado Siren Testing Citizens of the City of Sterling and residents of Logan County are reminded that beginning Friday, April 7th and every Friday until September 29th, the Sterling Emergency Communications Center will be testing the tornado sirens. These tests will be conducted at noon and the sirens will be run for a minute duration. Should inclement weather be present at the time of the scheduled test, the sirens will not be tested so as not to create any confusion. Tornado sirens are located at Highway 14 and County Road 37 (softball fields), North 7th Avenue and Elm Street (Sterling Middle School ball fields), 300 Block of Logan, Front Street (Franklin Park), 400 Block of Beattie Street (Cheairs Park), Highway 6 and County Road 370 (Overland Trail Museum) and East Highway 6 (Buffalo Hills Campground). Additionally, sirens are located in the Towns of Fleming, Iliff, Merino, Peetz and Crook. Tornado sirens are activated when the National Weather Service (NWS) alerts the City of a tornado warning. A tornado warning is issued when an actual tornado has been identified in the area. A tornado watch is established when the NWS alerts the City that conditions are right for the possible formation of a tornado. Tornado shelters are located at: First English Lutheran Church (South Seventh Avenue and Fairhurst); Faith United Methodist Church (230 Williams Place); First Christian Church (12915 CR 37 – Highway 14 and Ballpark Road); The Church of Latter Day Saints (513 North 7th Avenue); and Logan County Courthouse Annex Building (315 E.
