Fourteen tornadoes tore through New Orleans, sparking a statewide push for emergency sirens — because phone alerts are too slow and not everyone has reliable tech.

Advocates are calling for better tornado education, too — since hurricane prep doesn’t always translate to twisters. Sirens could cost $30K–$50K each, and officials are scrambling to fund them.
