I ended up going to a siren test finally. Fun fact, I called the EMA 15 minutes before it was gonna test, then got told after 8 minutes of being on hold that they weren't going to test. As you can see, that was not what ended up happening.

Sirens in Fort Worth, Texas are tested every Wednesday at 1:00 PM if the skies are clear. They test in 90 seconds of wail on the first Wednesday of the month, and 15 seconds on all other Wednesdays.

Additional Notes: This is siren #25 in the Fort Worth system, located at Silver Sage park. (Exact coordinates: 32.868641, -97.284654) It also took me 4 TRIES before I finally managed a success out of one of Fort Worth's sirens. (The first 2 times, the test was cancelled due to partly cloudy skies, and the third time, the siren I went to failed.)
