  Do not be worried if you see a number of emergency vehicles on the south side of Carbondale on June 9th  as a number of emergency reponse groups are particpating in a tornado response exercise that will probably last most of the day. From the email:

Emergency response agencies from across Jackson County will participate in

the Jackson County/Carbondale Tornado Response 26 Full-Scale Exercise designed to evaluate

and enhance the community's ability to respond to a major tornado disaster.

The exercise, scheduled for June 9, 2026, will simulate the aftermath of a severe tornado

impacting multiple areas on the Southwestern side of Carbondale. Participants will include Local

Emergency Management, Fire Departments, Law Enforcement Agencies, Emergency Medical

Services, Public Health Officials, Hospitals, Public Works Departments, Volunteer Organizations, and Private-sector Partners.
