Good report with one disagreement, the headaches are likely caused be stress blood pressure spikes. Use square breathing to disconnect from the emergency, once in the safe area.
Recommendation...get a radio that will monitor ham radio repeaters on 2 meters. Tulsa set up a storm watch protocolin the 1950's; that has been copied all over into the high risk areas. In Tulsa they use the 144.94 Mhz repeater (the 34/94 machine) to report storm spotting. Yours will likely be a different frequency; I've used the 31/91 in
Enid and in Broken arrow they use the 31/91 here to report lines down. This information will lead the national weather service by at least 10 minutes! You will know before they set off the sirens. Get your license, and you can add contact reports....
Sirens here are required to have battery power for an hour if power fails; learned the hard way. City failed you here!
