Hawaii Siren form Information

This form is normally used for the Hawaii Statewide Monthly Siren Test on the first working day of the month. It also can be used for an actual event siren sounding, aircraft PA warning, or reporting some other way (phone alert, EAS, NOAA Weather Radio) you received an event warning.

The SETUP Icon top left allows you to add your agency or groups name to the template. It will remain as such until you change it. You can clear the title by opening SETUP again and use your space bar.

In the Send To: entry field, you will find a default tactical address SIRENPRT-HI address. This will stay as such until you change or clear it. Separate call/tactical & Email addresses with a semicolon; You can always modify and add cc addresses prior to posting the message.

Copy and paste to a spreadsheet is available, TAB separation, located in the bottom portion of the sent text message.

Printing from a browser’s print function may be different from the operating systems default print mode. Select what works for you, for both printing and viewing.

Providing GPS information is very valuable, especially when not hearing a siren. We encourage you to do so. LAT/LON: The form accepts only Decimal Degree latitude and longitude. 4 decimals are preferred.
N/E/S/W: North and East are positive numbers in Decimal Degrees, South and West are negative numbers in Decimal Degrees.
For example, the Aloha Tower at Honolulu Harbor is located at Decimal Degrees 21.3071 -157.8660

NOTE: For auto entered GPS decimal coordinates to work, you must have a connected and configured GPS device working with Winlink Express. Otherwise, manual entry in the indicated format can be used.

Without properly formatted GPS coordinates this form cannot be mapped in Winlink Express.
