That's just a standard air intake for the M series. There is one of these on the top corner of a bank in Jefferson, GA. It sits inside of the 90 degree angle on the roof of the building. I've always wondered why the intakes are in the shape of a horn when the sound comes out of the shrouds over the ...

So, yeah, I've stood up under one of these sirens before. I must say that it's the only time that I have ever taken a BC Powder for a headache. I can only imagine what it felt like had I been in front of the siren about 200 feet away. I'd probably be deaf lol - my mom and my brother were across the ...

The attack signal sounds much more attention getting than alert would have sounded. I went up a side road and I mean I ...

SIRENS! FOR THE FIRST TIME!

I FINALLY HEARD TORNADO SIRENS FOR THE FIRST TIME! YES, I am excited. I was on the way back from work at Walmart tonight when I heard what I thought was firetrucks off in the distance. The lightning and the clouds were a nasty purple color and the thunder was really weird sounding. I slowed down int...

Hands down, the Hurricane. It has a sound all to it's own.

It stands out in i...
