Wellman ready for severe weather

The City of Wellman is ready for severe weather. City Administrator Dave Ross says they bought a new tornado siren last year and has it connected to the Washington County Safety Center. He says they can also set it off manually if necessary. Ross says they have a storm shelter in the basement of city hall so when the weather is calling for severe weather including tornadoes they will open it up for anyone who wishes to use it.
