Outdoor Warning Siren System
The
Outdoor Warning Siren System at the University of Houston is
activated by Department of Public Safety, Emergency Management
Bureau in the event of an emergency when it may be unsafe to be
outdoors. The types of incidents that may require activation of
the siren system are:
• Severe weather conditions (Tornado warning or other dangerous
conditions)
• Major hazardous material incidents
• An armed and hostile individual on campus
• Other conditions that may require an emergency shelter in
place action

actual emergency, the PIER notification system will be used in
conjunction with the siren system to disseminate further
information to the UH community. Only those community members
that have current contact information in PeopleSoft will be able
to receive these emergency messages. You can find instructions
for updating your cell phone number, email address and other
