Sirens will sound at full volume for approximately four minutes in Westchester, Rockland, Orange, and Putnam counties.

Residents are not required to take any action during the test.

In an actual emergency, the sirens would sound to alert the public to tune in to a local Emergency Alert System radio or television station for important information and direction.
