    They test the tornado sirens where I live in NE Georgia on the first Tuesday of every month. I can hear several that span the county, so the sound comes from all directions in varying tone and pitch. Some of them spin, which adds to the unsettling symphony. The only time they skip a test is if that first Tuesday has rainy weather, as not spook the community.

      @@joeywissler7769 If it says "Nuclear siren," that's what it's for, and probably all it's for. I grew up a mile from a nuclear power plant, and not sure how things are in other places, but there were sirens setup that could be heard in every direction for 10 miles around the plant. If there were a problem at the plant, the sirens would be sounded to direct you to turn in to a radio for more information.
      The sirens were tested regularly, it's pretty damn eerie standing on a hill in the countryside hearing 5+ sirens going off and peaking at different times around you.
      Edit: I'm not that knowledgeable about sirens but the power plant near me's alert sirens were P-10s or similar.

    When I was a little boy in California, they used to test the air raid sirens and the teachers would teach us “duck and cover” where we’d have to crawl under our desks and wait for the teacher to tell us we can come out. Those air raid sirens used to scare the hell out of me and I’d cry my eyes out. I was in kindergarten and those early grades (1st, 2nd). To this day, the sound of an air raid siren makes my stomach tighten.

      LlamaFluff Ide very much like to see your source considering this speaker is mechanical as well (because it rotates). a traditional air raid siren is a simple electric engine which emits sound in 360 degrees. The only benefit to this siren is that it can play more than just an air raid tone, but why would that be important? you dont need a siren to distinguish between an air raid, and a tornado, regardless the message is still duck and cover.

      Where I live we have lots of these. You kinda get used to sound. But whenever I see them, it still creeps me out

    I love when they test the tornado sirens locally, and when the closest few turn off, you can hear the others in the distance turning off one by one.

      +Collin Mustico the sirens are not for bombs but for the nuclear emergencies such as a reactor malfunction on one of FPL's numerous reactor sites.

      They have to state that it is a test before people actually start panicking.

    You should here the alarm that goes off in oak ridge Tennessee first Wednesday of every month. It’s the nuclear alarm that they test, but it sounds like an air raid alarm. If your not from oak ridge, I’d imagine it’s a shock as they don’t tell you it’s a test at all.
