Re: The official and updated Missouri Statewide map

Hey, sorry to say the Sterling Little Giant in Asbury has been removed, I was out there sight seeing a few weeks ago. It was roof mounted on a small red fire building and it's since been removed, the building is also repainted green so it's probably not a fire building anymore

Joplin MO Tornado warning Jan 2021 - weird dying 2001 audio

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtG3rpNfmM4 This video really sucks sorry, was really just trying to capture the ambiance audio.

4th Joplin former Allertor location

In my spare time I've made it a habit to visit all the 2001-130 locations in Joplin and try to see if it at one point replaced something else. Not surprisingly it turns out in the past the area's system was a lot more diverse, and recently I managed to figure out an approximate location of a 4th of ...

Re: Federal Signal STL-10 Siren Test (x2) Stockton, MO 8-13-20

Oh this is so cool! I was in Stockton recently checking out their system as well, I took some glamour shots of this STL-10. It's so awesome to get to see it in action, thanks for the video!

Re: ACA Alertronic in Edgerton, Kansas

Whatever that is it's not an Alertronic. Wrong kind of horns and you'll note they're not symmetrical top and bottom. Looks like something homemade. The siren map I found this location on had it labeled as an Alertronic, although I agree it definitely doesn't look like any model I've ever seen. I wa...

Unknown siren (mislabeled as Alertronic) in Edgerton, Kansas

https://goo.gl/maps/8ZRM9Fzu8yfD4MAq7 Found this while perusing the sirens of Kansas City. Does anyone here happen to know anything about this siren? I'm interested in knowing whether it's still standing or not. I don't think it's functional, it certainly doesn't look it. Does anyone have any closer...

Re: Question about Richland MO EOWS 612s

Big bump incoming, I recently got to visit Richland for the first time on a road trip. This place is of pretty big interest to me for a lot of reasons, it's really a gorgeous town set in a much more hilly and mountainous region than I'm used to seeing in MO. It seems very peaceful and has a lot more...

Re: 2001s Going Off in Matteson, IL

Cool that yours sound in attack, recently something really similar happened in my town and I have a couple of videos too, but the 2001s here sound in alert. In our case, the tornado was very directly supposed to slam into our city, but ended up just grazing the far northern outskirts. I guess they'r...

Re: What do sirens in your area warn of?

Our system is all 2001s as of right now. I believe the system exclusively warns of tornadoes, and during storm season they are silent tested. After a pretty horrible tornado destroyed a huge portion of this town, as well as killing many people who didn't take the warning seriously/were numb to siren...
