The Hawaii Emergency Management Agency announced that the monthly test of the Statewide Outdoor Warning Siren System will take place on Monday, February 2, 2026, at 11:45 a.m. The siren test will coincide with a test of the Live Audio Broadcast segment of the Emergency Alert System.

According to the agency, “During this monthly test, all Statewide Outdoor Warning Sirens will sound a one-minute Attention Alert Signal (steady tone). A test of the Live Audio Broadcast segment of the Emergency Alert System is conducted at roughly the same time as the monthly siren sounding, in cooperation with the Hawai‘i broadcast industry. There will be no exercise or drill accompanying the test.”

These regular tests are part of statewide efforts to ensure that warning systems are functioning properly and can alert residents in case of emergencies.
