Advocates argue sirens are vital for reaching everyone, especially those without smartphones or with disabilities. With costs around $30K–$50K per siren and shifting weather patterns bringing twisters eastward, officials are scrambling to fund and deploy this lifesaving tech—especially since many recent tornadoes struck at night. It’s not just about sirens; it’s about updating emergency plans and educating communities so no one’s left behind when disaster strikes.
