The National Weather Service will conduct a Statewide Tornado Drill at 1:30 p.m., Tuesday, March 3rd. If adverse weather exists on Tuesday we will postpone until Thursday the 5th at 130pm CST.
As has been the case for the past several years, the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) will grant a waiver to the state of Kansas which will allow The National Weather Service to use the actual Emergency Alert System (EAS) code TOR for the tornado drill message. This means that NOAA Weather Radios that are set to receive the TOR code will activate for the test tornado warning.
