The National Weather Service and statewide agencies will conduct two statewide tests of communication systems about 10:15 a.m. and 7:35 p.m. Tuesday (March 21). If there is any chance of severe weather anywhere in Indiana that day, the tests will be postponed to Wednesday (March 22). Purdue will test multiple layers of the Purdue Alert system in the morning test, then test only outdoor sirens during the evening test.
