    *Disclaimer #1: Looking back on the whole event I really should’ve just taken shelter. Please if you are ever in the same situation TAKE SHELTER and do NOT do what I did! I am a officially trained weather spotter, but even that does not excuse my actions that day. Be safety smart y’all!
    *Disclaimer #2: I was NOT going as fast as the video makes it look/sound. My car is a slow 4 cylinder with a CVT transmission and it always sounds like it's going way faster than it is. Really at most I was going 40-45 MPH so DO NOT give me crap about it.

    Today I had decided to go to see a noon blast siren near Chicago, and I ended up being late and missed it going off (SirenDude1003 got it going off go check out his video). While I was on my way home I got a notification of a tornado warning for McHenry County. So I quickly zoomed into a Walgreen parking lot and began filming. The video shows as follows (it has been heavily edited due to strong language and personal conversation). The sirens activate at 4:46 and Whelens plus a nearby 3T22 can be heard. Prior to that, a 2001 can be heard from I believe McHenry doing attack. Thanks for watching and I hope you all enjoy the video!

    If a tornado warning is issued for my area, I have time to walk to my HOA’s siren and get the activation. That is if we get one, this may be a dead year for my area, unless the tropics do something, which by the looks of things may just happen sometime this year.

The last time my dad drove that 2015 Subaru Outback, he got a ticket from the Pennsylvania State Police, but the trooper was nice enough to make it a simple citation with nothing against my dad’s record and no points on my dad’s license. It was a speeding ticket. Wasn’t watching his speed.

    I recorded a video of my fedelcode model 7 going off with the Wentzville mo whelens that are st charles county controlled the sirens went off because someone spotted a twister in Cottleville and the national weather service labeled it as a tornado. I lived too far away from the tornado but I was still in my basement and recorded all the sirens going off same situation just not with those storm clouds but rain minutes after the sirens in Wentzville were turned off then they went off And record them going off in a 40 second video of them going off.
