Just a quick reminder!
Emergency Siren test schedule
The first Saturday of every month at noon we test the fire notification tone. The second Saturday of every month at noon will be severe weather tone. The third Saturday of every month at noon will be all clear tone.
The most common siren is the fire notification tone. WCVFD service area is more than just the city of West Columbia. They also service the surrounding area into County jurisdiction as well as assisting the other fire departments WCPD dispatch’s for. This is the reason that tone is the most common you will hear.
Hope this information clears up any confusion regarding emergency sirens.
We have been diligently working an incident that occurred Saturday May 16th, 2026 around 10:38pm in the area of N. 17th and Hamilton. This is still an active investigation. If you have any information please call the PD at 979-345-5121.
