1/22/2017 Tornado warning and tornado, Dodge County, GA

- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- I've had this video uploaded for some time, just unlisted. This happened on the high risk day and is the same storm that produced the 70 mile wedge that tore through Albany and Rochelle. We pretty much watched it make a straightline from Albany to my house, and ended up going between my house and my neighbors house slightly to the north. It was very loud, I've never heard the wind make that kind of noise. Several trees were blown down or snapped in half, one of them landing on top of my neighbors house. A barn directly in the path was completely destroyed and tin was thrown everywhere.
1:12 siren goes off
6:00 it hits
Those tornado sirens.....one of the creepiest ways to warn citizens of impending doom.
Missyd 1974 Yeah! The sirens scare me more then the wind itself....:(
Yeah, they remind me of air raid sirens, like it's time to head for a fallout shelter.
yeah i totally agree with you i think sirens scare me more than a tornado
same here, the siren gets you off guard too. stews up the situation, man!
My first memory was when I was 5 years old and my whole family was in the bathroom because of a tornado. All I remember was the sirens and my mom crying and the house shaking. A couple years ago I moved to a town in Georgia, where little did I know they tested the sirens every Saturday at noon. It brought back all of my trauma... every week. I didn't live there for very long.
That siren sound still strikes fear in many when it wails. I used to be absolutely terrified of storms when that siren went off. Now I am a severe weather photographer and studied meteorology. Think it helped get over my fear but still that siren..... its like it's saying "time to die"
Koakoa45 exactly, I'm still afraid when I hear this alarm, it's like the alarm of hell 😲😲
I lived in Georgia when I was 5 and I had a horrific fear of tornadoes that caused me many nightmares until I was about 16. I'm certain alarms such as this one did not help.
Sorry I wasn’t alive then. Where I grew up we had WWII air raid sirens converted to tornado sirens. But if you are in Europe you are talking WWII also. Meaning we bombed Germans in your town.
This siren is saying your house will get destroyed so you better go somewhere quick
It sounds like air raid sirens as if bombs are about to drop I guess a tornado can make a area look like it’s been bombed if you think about it
I don't know about you guys but I felt my heart sink hearing that tornado siren. I remember being in a tornado myself back in 2007 and it was the scariest thing I could've ever imagined. I lived in a mobile home and my only shelter was the hallway, I remember being on the phone with my mother begging her to somehow get me out of it. My husband who was a severe diabetic was laying on the bed sleeping and I dragged him off the bed just in time before the window behind his head blew into the house. I never EVER want to go through that again.
Captcha Neon glad you made it through. I hate seeing the bad downpours for fear one will turn into a tornado. Scary.
I remember being 13 or 14 and stuck in a mobile home during BAD straight line winds. I was watching the weather, at home alone, with tornado watches and warnings popping off left and right, and next thing I know, the power cuts out. I haul ass to the bathroom with a couch pillow and get in the tub. Scared the life out of me.
I’ve almost had something similar happen. There is usually severe weather where I had been, but there weren’t any tornado sirens or shelters anywhere. I’m not used to severe weather where I live, as nothing ever happens in my city. So I was easily terrified.
I was going back to the trailer after I went out for a swim at the pool, as I was walking back it had started getting unusually windy and rainy. I thought nothing of it and quickly ran back as I was still in my swimsuit. When I got back I dried off and hung out with the family. Later in the night we found out that an outdoor movie was being hosted in the main area. So I went there with my mom and sister, however, about halfway though it my mom got an alert on her phone saying severe wind/weather warning. It then turned into a tornado warning a few minutes later. I suggested that we go back and find somewhere to seek shelter, but my mom insisted on staying where we were. I looked up at the sky, to see a massive wall cloud hovering above us moving at crazy fast wind speeds, I got scared and started to speed walk back to the trailer, my mom saw it so she pulled out her phone to record it. I soon shouted at her to follow me back to the trailer because this seemed dangerous. I looked up at the sky waiting for my mom to “catch up”, seeing green, purple, and blue all in the clouds, with loud thunder and lightning flashes. I didn’t even care anymore, I ran as fast as I could back to the trailer as I continued to shout at my mom and sister to get back here. Once we all got inside and the storm hit, the trailer started to shake violently. I heard people screaming outside and saw other trailers almost go flying. It wasn’t a tornado, but crazy gusts of winds sending things flying one direction.
Scary as shit time for me, -20/10 would never recommend.
@@Mopsspoof OMG that sounds absolutely terrifying and you must have seriously been worried that your mom was going to get taken up in it, all over trying to get footage of it. So dangerous and yes trailers can’t handle things like that however, you were definitely safer in the trailer than outside. Don’t recommend 😂😂😂 that’s the best part of your comment
I know the type
Siren starts at 01:14... much love for all my jumpy folks.
Stephanie Abrams underrated comment 😂
Stephanie Abrams actually 1:13 Your one second off
I got the shit scared out of me when the siren went off.
Jordan Can't Rant same
Same
Jumped about two feet when that damn siren went off..lol
Is that tornado siren mounted on his house?
b3j8 hahahahaha sounds like it
I was in this same tornado. I don't know how far you were from Rosewood Drive but it's great to see exactly what we made it through. Took two hours to climb out of my neighborhood.
i was in that same tornado my area got destroyed
Dang, is the alarm in your yard? Watching the flag fly, you could tell when the tornado had passed your area. The flag flew to the right at first, then straight toward the porch, then toward the left at the end.
yeah it's in my yard, actually it's right next to my shop.
I hate bad weather
While watching, I was hoping the flag would survive, and it did.
@@GeneralSirDouglasMcA Wich makes me wonder why the American flag is just left to be ripped up by any kind of wind storm. Take it down before a Hurricane.or inpending tornado/ high wind storm.
@@fredthompson4568 idk
The sound is incredible. You can hear it coming way before the trees begin to move. That has to be terrifying.
Yes it is
the tornado sirens are absolutely terrifying. they scare me to death whenever i hear them in real life, and in videos apparently too.
Same here too, I’ve never been to countries like Memphis, Tennessee and parts of the United States because of 🌪 ⚠️
Thunderbolt is the scariest siren sound
We had tornado sirens go off three times yesterday morning in Memphis. Those sirens sound like they're inside your house. 😲
They’re way too scary
that is one of the most terrifying tornado sirens i have ever heard
Jen☆ No joke!!! That’ll definitely wake the people up!
Clearly you haven't heard the Chicago siren malfunction. Nightmare inducing
The tornado sirens here in Georgia do sound very terrifying heck I would rather be asleep then awake in my opinion sometimes it’s better that way unless the tornado is in direct path of your house
Federal Signal Model 2T. Makes a terrifying noise lol. Also, the Chicago Sirens didn't malfunction, they just run a signal called Alternate Wail, where it is a hi low tone wailing up and down. Extremely creepy when there are many buildings to echo it around 😅
Slim Jordan this is a federal signal model 2t not 5t
Strong ass flag pole
Good ole Flag stood tall and proud through it all !
Tim Whitfield still standing USA!
yes... but it still stood while dozens of lives were lost...
meaning...?
🇺🇸🗽
@@tornadius4343 what do you think it does during war?
'that our flag was still there'
One year living in Oklahoma traumatized me enough that every time I hear those sirens even on a video sends me into panic mode right away. When people asks me to describe Oklahoma all I think about is the gates of hell. Couldn't get out of there fast enough, people that live there are brave, I am not that strong lol
I was in Oklahoma for 3 months in 1982- at Ft Sill in Lawton. A tornado hit the airport on base one night, about a mile from my barracks.
I lived in Hendersonville TN in 2006 when the Gallatin tornado hit. Sideswiped my house, and the sound starting around 4:45 in this video is EXACTLY what it sounded like. I didn’t have the balls to record it though. Great video.
I had one come about a block away from where my house was. It sounded like a freight train coming but when it was about 200 feet away it sounded like giant vacuum.
Lol that siren can scare the tornado away
Ava Sarkies kkkkk yes can not
Right!
You can hear the roar everyone talks about when they see or hear tornadoes. Glad you are safe man
Anyone notice that the flag pole & flag survived?
So did all the trees

Bummer, I was waiting for it to disappear.

@@theamericaneaglepatriot9673 At least you called me by the right name, thank you Sir.
perfect video showing exactly how violent the RFD is and why ametuer chasers need to be extremely cautious!!
So odd seeing no leaves on the trees but still having to worry about tornadoes. Here in Ontario, freezing rain is the big worry that time of year.
That fricking siren scared me more than the tornado lol
Jeez that wind and rain was strong. Good that you're safe!
The window moved a couple of times, thought it was going to break, so glad it didn't though.
Twentiethcenturybaby those were screen windows.
I don't know where you are but I live on Raintree. The sound was something I will never forget.
This siren is terrifying. The one here in Wisconsin is not really that scary. The only reason it is scary is because you know what it means and you get alerts on you phone and stuff. The sound on your phone however, that scares the HELL out of me. I have PTSD ( not diagnosed by professional if i need to be) from that sound. Just recently a few months ago we had a tornado and it was about 1 mile from my neighborhood/house. My parents did not tell me and my sister it was that close because my sister was already freaked out enough. I was honestly just chillin in the basement because I knew we would be fine. They don't get that big here. But how I found out that it was about 1 mile from my house is because when my dad drove me to school the next morning, there was sign laying in the feild beside the highway. And we just recently had another tornado like a couple weeks ago like 5-10 minutes from our house. But luckily it did not get near us. And it was only goin 25 mph (45 kmph? Idk how much it is in kmph) Anyways, if you got the end of this comment a heart ❤
That siren is very close, at least you know it works, some sirens you cant even hear it, where I live in NoKy, down street from NKU I can hear the University's sirens well, the general public's? barely. Yes, I too am terrified of severe weather, especially tornadoes they scare the hell out of me. We had a system that moved through the area i believe back in 2012, Oh boy, it produced 3 F5 tornadoes. I have never seen such black angry sky's in my life. You can see them coming, feel the temperature change especially the barometric pressure change. Its crazy. Hopefully we won't have a bad spring coming up, that usually likely.
Run for the cellar door 🚪
Hearing those air raid sirens was always associated with something bad. They scare me to death.
Very scary! I'm so glad you uploaded this, and thank you so much for bringing it to the public! This is something they need to show in schools and businesses, even though it's out in the country. People need to know that you just can't dismiss a siren, because the one you dismiss may represent the tornado that could kill you or someone else, not to mention do some major damage. Fantastic video!
If that was a tornado...it missed you...thank God.
I grew up in Kansas. Lived there for 8 years and then moved to Massachusetts. These sirens sent me straight into panic mode 😬
Without a doubt the loudest tornado siren I’ve ever heard! It’s as loud as an air raid siren!
It is , its a federal model 2
Technically, it is.
That sucker was close!!
I like that tornado alarm~ rather affective at it's job...so many people ignore them than die from ignoring them but this one really triggers the instincts to run I think. Thank you for recording and/or sharing. Best wishes to all effected even with years time one never forgets this sort of thing and it takes long to recover finincially as well as emotionally.
This siren sounds like it’s right next to the house because of the loudness. It also sounds like a thunderbolt siren.
In Houston only thing I have to really worry about is not burning to death ...... or getting the flu cuz the weather changes like every 5 minutes
IMMONIE NARCISSE yup! Spically this week. 55 for 3 days now its 80 today
Immonie Narcisse I feel you bro I too live in Houston and you forgotten about the rain we live in a flood zone area so just think how it will look in the morning cause it rain though out the whole night
Facts. Houston is Bipolar as hell.
Utah is arguably worse. It’d be 106 degrees one day and then be snowing the next in 20 degree weather...
Saw the wall cloud from one of the storms that hit us on April 9, 2015 here in northern IL. The storm had produced an EF-0 just a minute or two before I saw the wall cloud, but it had lifted. We have ASC T-135s here in the Rockford IL region.
Man i was wondering when the siren was gonna start. But damn does that model 2T rock! Amazing footage! Sucks it hit your house.
The most horrible sounds, EVER!!! Back in Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky, ours used to ramp up and STAY up. As you moved to other parts of the County, you could hear all of them from everywhere in this horrible, dissonant and painful chorus of pitches! Very scary!
That tornado siren sent chills down my spine. At least you had the tornado siren. I was out in the country southeast of Albany the night that the storms hit. We didn't have any sirens before the tornadoes came by. We heard them come through the woods and hid everyone in the center closet of the house. We had three tornadoes pass by the house. Some of our neighbors died. That night still causes nightmares. I was on the phone with my dad just in case the house was hit. He lived a state away and I told him if you hear us scream and I can't call you back in 30 minutes, please head our way with help. I am getting chills while writing this.
This is way too scary
you can see the updrafts at 730 it is pulling the flag up
awesome siren. great video. we had one here in Pa on the 25th..missed our home by a mile. probably same storm system.
grvolans sorry to burst your bubble buddy. This is the 5th time ive seen that comment on different videos. Word for word.
@@kokomccl Just being honest, bud...Look it up..Feb. 25, 2017 tornado in Scranton, Plains, Moosic, Pa...about a mile from me..just had another one this past summer...Wilkes Barre, Pa...took out stores in a mall complex..I don't lie.
Where can you get the best tornadoes?
Only in America 🇺🇸
God that scared me! And I live in GA.
megdel8 same
Interesting video, the wind blowing the chimes are eerily beautiful.
That’s gotta be the creepiest siren I’ve ever heard!
Yep
That 2t is loud! I hope it warned everyone.
I could hear the multiple wind chimes making music, then the flag and pole looked like it was about to go flying, then you could not see at all. That was scary!! And I could not begin to imagine being asleep and then hearing that Siren. Flying out of bed at the speed of sound with your heart pounding. (Or at least mine would) Im so glad your ok, and your house is ok. Thank you for sharing this.
I live in Eastman, but I don’t remember this. Was this around Irma?
What kind of siren is this? It sounds like either a high pitch ACA hurricane or a 4/5 port Thunderbolt
Oh Thanks! Wish we had older sirens here in Central Florida. All we have are stupid 2001s and Modulators
Chad Boerth it's a 2T-240
reverse thrust it probably does
Jeb still does its noon blast and test! I drove arround there and I heard a siren like that at noon. I instantly knew it was jebs.
are you still active
Where is your siren? And where was this?
Next to his shop. Its a 4/5 port Federal 2T-240
Thank God you was safe, It would have been better if you had a storm room or shelter to get into.
Those wind chimes were really something.
I didnt see shit in this tornado video yet others are flipping out. The chimes were the highlight lol
That thunderbolt is as loud as heck! I got earrape listening to the winds on full volume.
Actually it's a Model 2T-240. Basically a small, omnidirectional Thunderbolt with no blower. Unfortunately the one heard fell during Hurricane Irma
Time to go underground when you hear 👂 those sirens 🚨 ! 🌪
Run for the cellar and take cover
The most unnerving part has to be that roar slowly getting more and more intense.
Here is my question isn't bad to have your windows open during a tornado warning and a tornado
just hearing the sirens make me scared .. 😪
Omg that siren reminds me of WW2! So eerie sounding! 😢
😱
I'm from the PNW and I visited my sister in Minnesota several years ago. She warned me of weekly tornado siren drills this little town had at 8 am. Well, first time I heard it I was sleeping. Almost peed my pants and for a split second, I was thinkin we were getting bombed 😂 Scariest thing ever. I will chance the big earthquake at home because I honestly think I'd be an anxious mess with constant tornado warnings. I don't know how my cousin moved to Oklahoma a few years ago. I called him once and I asked what he was doing and he said "well, we are hunkered down waiting out a tornado that's near". I just could not do this.
Did I miss it? Where was the twister?
A twister a twister 🌪
That sure was one hell of a storm, was there any damage to your property other than the barn and the trees?
Definitely a Tornado... You can see the sudden wind direction change around 7:30 and the debris of trees like branches move around upward. It was a weak tornado perhaps a F0 or F1. Good video :)
My little town needs a siren, but we are so small we don’t even have a mayor or anything. Would the county have to purchase one for us?
4th grade . Was next to a tornado siren in school. Scared me so bad. I pooped . Has to go home for the rest of the afternoon. I was terrified when tornado sirens would sound off during the first Wednesday of the month. Or a tornado warning. Now that I'm older.The sirens don't bother me anymore. It's just was a bad experience at 10 years old. Was loud. And got scared
If a siren is shut off, one would think they didn't have any warning. They were going off a few seconds before the monster hit, and no one would have made it downstairs.
Guys, seriously? Stop asking for the location and read the title of the video
The tornado siren going off made me jump so hard
When that siren went off I said “I wasn’t ready!!!! 🍍 Pineapples!” (In my Kevin Hart voice) 🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 made me jump LOL
Thanks for the warning of the loudness of the warning siren. You basically saved my pants and couch....👍🏻
Well I heard the siren, seen the wind pick up but didn't see any tornado.
Omg I've got family in Dodge County, GA!! 😳😳😳
I just randomly stumbled across this video. And that alarm is the most terrifying one I have heard in all my life. It sounds like something from a horror movie. But good video.
That's AWESOME footage!!! WOW!!! It takes you through the whole experience - the gloomy sky with a touch of breeze, the howling siren, the sky getting darker and darker still, the wind rapidly picking up, seeing all that debris blowing in the rain and wind until things settle down and the sky lightens once again! Now, did an actual tornado touch down in this video, or was this a severe thunderstorm with the possibility of a tornado?
did you not read the description?? you should do some research. An ACTUAL tornado touched down and was between their house and their neighbor's house... tisk tisk..
@@megansland8920 AWWWWWW, naughty little me! Spank spank.
about 6 minute marks flag going to left.....then stops...then 6:23 flapping to the right hard !!
swany and it still stood tall
This reminds me of the storms that hit the Midwest last July. It was really exciting because I coincidently woke up to get a drink of water sometime between 2-3 in the morning right as the storm was starting
Federal Thunderbolt I sat downstairs on my couch and watched the storm, but I was too lazy to set up my camera lol. I figured if we had a tornado warning and the sirens were activated then I'd start recording
Did u get ur water first at least
Poor wind Chimes I hope you didn't lose them......
Definite tornado roar. Glad you did not get a direct hit from that storm. That storm siren is loud and 😨 scary.
Precisely
How did your siren activate? Did it get tones from the county?
..that siren scared me!..I got headphones on!.. wasn't expecting that..the siren is worse than the tornado!..wow!!
That is definitely loud.. Scary times 😰
How can I get a tornado siren in my back yard? I don't think Cairo, Ga. has a tornado siren. We are 60 miles from Albany.
I sell and install them, but your town would have to purchase it.
That noise jump me right out my skin.I would hate to have to hear that noise everytime,sounds like its the end of the world.
Looks like the Tornado got scared of the Tornado siren and went back up into the sky
The moment you hear it.. about 5:20... gives me goose flesh after living through a couple. Even one this year. They scare me to death
From this viewpoint, which direction was it coming from?
Good Christ!! Not gonna sleep through that siren!!! It scared my cat!!
The night mother-nature drove ol' dixie down
Unless I missed something, I didn't realize that 30 or 40mph winds was a tornado with sheets of rain, I think some people need to go to a meteorologist college course to be shown what a actual tornado was, the trees would have been gone, along with the porch or house that the camera was in lol
Is it an air raid too!😬
Love the aire ride sirens
Aimee Laybourne same
I now x
Ikr?
4:07. When u hear the tornado its self 😰😱😱😱
Moved from GA to CT over 20 years ago. Don’t miss those storms.
It must have been a tornado because the flag changed direction
Is this your own siren?
Seems like quite a storm!
A rough ⛈
Hey so Evanston Illinois is replacing their system of thunderbolts (6ms, in pretty good condition, from 1954) so if you are looking for extra thunderbolts or sirens to restore, I would contact them and see what's up
We’re are they they wind close or is that yours
those windchimes before the sirens were so pretty but holy FUCK once the sirens turned on
Tornado sirens have to be the most needed but hated to hear noises we have to endure. That's a WW II air raid siren and nighty close by n loud to boot. Damn only thing worse would be it going late at night.
We use to have the exact same sounding siren to alert volunteer fire members. It made my old lab howl in discuss and pain.
