Community Warning System Alarms
Large towers located throughout the community broadcast a:
"whoop-whoop"
tone in all directions. When you hear the
"whoop-whoop" tone, go inside to
"shelter in place"
The Community Warning System are tested each Saturday at noon.
Any other time you hear the outside alarm you should assume an emergency
exists and go inside The cities of La Porte, Morgan's Point, and
Shoreacres will notify citizens of an emergency that requires you to go
inside to wait for further instructions. Citizens are alerted to
"shelter in place" (go inside) by the Community Warning System alarms
which sound a "whoop-whoop" tone. Once inside, citizens will be given
further instructions on radio station AM 830 and as needed through an
automated telephone system which calls homes and businesses. Examples of
community emergencies include chemical release or weather-related events
such as a tornado. Some emergencies may not warrant citizens to
shelter. For such emergencies which the outside alarm is not
sounded, you may call the local information CAER line at 281-476-2237 or
281-476-2273. Remember, our outside alarms will be activated only
if citizens should shelter inside to await instructions!
