No sirens that I know of in TV, just the weather alert radios. From people who lived through those tornadoes, I'm not sure a siren would have helped. By the time folks would have heard a siren or even a weather warning, the tornado had come and gone. It seems like the "warning" was actually hearing the tornado coming at them.
