Hello. I have the free tornado app from the American Red Cross. When we had a tornado a month ago, my phone was sitting on its charger with all apps closed. The thunder was rumbling outside. I could hear it started to rain.
All of a sudden a loud siren sounded followed by a voice saying, "tornado warning". It repeated itself a couple of times before going silent. About 5 minutes later, the process started again with the siren and voice warning. This continued until the National Weather Service cancelled the alert, at which time I received an alert that the NWS cancelled said alert. This is a very good free app. It was later confirmed that we had an actual tornado. I have not yet experienced a government alert. Regards, Gadget Girl Sent from my Apple gadget.
