idk why people think when the tornado sirens stop that the threat is over. People storms do not go away in 3 minutes
Big brain time.
and also, sirens dont sound for like an hour
Lol 💀
I mean some can but that's incredibly rare.
Tornadoes stay in your area for at least 15 minutes
it's kinda scary that people went on snap chat to complain instead of getting inside...
N A T U R A L S E L E C T I O N
Darwinism
idiots
that's a mistake they will only make once
In Oklahoma we hear these all the time, it becomes silly to take cover every single time
Imagine hearing all the sirens at once.
Im screwed if that happen, its either all of these come at once including a nuclear attack.
@Heela Tokhi yeah no shxt
mellowed let’s not hope that happens ....EVER
Unknown imagine, just Jesus fuck, just wow imagine
Fuck. Shit. Aww god damn it. It's a nuclear tornado that causes floods....
They have to replace nuke siren with "TACTICAL NUKE INCOMING"
*B00 D££P B00 D££P B00 D££P* *B0000000000000000000000M*
*BOOOM*
Name surname you forgot it's over
Or
*"abandon your shits, we're doomed!"*
No one would take them seriously then
should be a person screaming NUKE!!!!! TORNADO!!!!!!! FLOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
why did that make me laugh???
PNB Productions same
TACTICAL NUKE INCOMMING
Some digital sirens do that
You whatch to many storm movies
Most horrifying in my opinion is the air raid siren. I hope to god I never hear that go off.
@Jason Voorheese cause hes a pussy
Same here.
I live in a rly small town, we have an air raid siren that they sound everyday at noon(to test)
Sarah Bomar they’re all air raid sirens/tornado sirens. The difference is whether or not they’re mechanical or electronical.
Try chicago
The sirens are controled by a soundboard lol
no... they arent
@@bitchlasagna4720 r/woosh
Mam just imagine hearing this in ww3
@@bitchlasagna4720 I know about sirens, there are electro-mechanical sirens (using rotors), and electronic sirens (analog electronic sirens are sirens with capacitors and a soundboard, and digital, which is the same thing but no capacitors), these are Whelen's, so they are electronic sirens, so they are running off a soundboard.
@@SouthFLExpressLanes i know, its just an old dumb comment i said while having a stroke
hmm Tornado Warning or Chemicals in the air..
oh lord
TaeTaeChai indeed
In general GET THE HECK INSIDE AND TAKE COVER
hmmm, let's find out
*walks outside*
oh it's just a nice day with sirens going off.
1 month later
sir, you have 4 days to live due to exposure to a hazardous chemical a month ago.
Both bad and usually its a tornado but chemicals in the air are alwahs tyere from buildings and just chemicals they put in le sky
Good progression of disasters here:
Tornado
Flash Flood
*THERMONUCLEAR ARMAGEDDON*
zachary scott should flash flood and tornados switch?
r/MADLADS
WHAT THE.OK ITS SCARY AND 2ND I heard a flash flood siren while I was on a vacation
Am from the UK so
A threat is usually just telling you GET INSIDE! depending on the type of siren they sound different. Between a Whelen 4008 and a thunderb bolt 1000. The tones depend on the command box, the type of siren, and what the city wants
correct.
No one: hmm i think the tornado sirens are going off
Me: SiReN hEaD
Some familiar Warning Sirens name:
0:50 = Whelen Vortex (4004)
0:54 = Federal Signal Thunderbolt (1000T)
0:54 that's actually not a federal signal, its actually a rare CTI one
At the beginning, it is two whelen vortexs and one at 560 Hz sounding in sequence. Which makes it sound like a WWII Carter Air raid siren.
SlayerGaming_TV sounds more like a car horn.
ThatTechDude that's what I said
Bruh... I literally just noticed that
I thought it was carters lol I was like "but America ain't got no carters" 😆
Question for you. Just got two of them, back to back (a test, hopefully). One was the 'air raid siren', as you put it, but the first was a long, continuous tone. Any idea where I can find resources to find out what they mean?
wOaH tHeRe BusTeR
My first reaction would be, “SIREN HEAD”
this was before siren head even existed
Umm I would rather jump in a tornado instead of seeing siren head
CybR ok? I’m only saying if I heard it now :/
50 siren heads randomly spawn out of nowhere “THE FITNESS GRAM PACER TEST IS A MULTI STAGE AEROBIC CAPACITY WORKOUT-“
1:37
Is is that fucking internet explorer.
dudester101 yep
dudester101 well now we know why the news is sometimes wrong
dudester101 ya I know right 😂
dudester101 lol
Also thier using IRC. holy shit.
Laughing here in Germany. We have siren checks every month
C Klasse 55 AMG I swear I have never seen any sirens here in germany 😂😂😂
Una Rummel where are you from?
C Klasse 55 AMG kleinblittersdorf and you?
Una Rummel Achso, das ist doch an der französichen Grenze. Also ich komme aus Niedersachsen. (Südharz)
Official H&H's Garage Host so do we
2016: scary mysterious siren
2020: hehe funni sirenhead
Siren go brrrr hehe
0:00 The siren was a dual toned Whelen WPS 3016
1:25 That is the one that goes off constantly where I live.
There are the scheduled ones that go off every Monday through Saturday at 7:;00 AM, 8:00AM, 12:00 PM, 1:00 PM, and 5:00 PM.
Plus whenever the volunteer fire department needs an ambulance or a firetruck it goes off.
Plus it is also used as our tornado warning siren which nobody ever notices because that rotating horn is going off constantly in our town.
the first saturday of every month, 12;00 for 1 minute, is my tornado siren heaven
damn that one loud car alarm
Thank you so much!! I just had a siren go off and I wasn’t so sure if it was over when it stopped or not!
Honestly, I'd be too busy laughing at the nuclear threat siren to actually find shelter :^)
The computer just simulates the pattern of the tone, definitely how how eerie it will sound (which also depends largely on what siren is used)
To be fair there isn’t much shelter to go to in the event of a nuclear detonation
the ones in the beginning sounded like Carter sirens
I swear I heard a carter siren
Isaac and Alex I am not a siren
No it's a dual tone whelen.
Mr.Someone \Tom/ actually it's 2 different Whelens, just one is higher pitched than the other so it sounds like a dual toned Whelen or a Carter
Carters Carnivorous Plants noone said your name!
Omq Frisky Wooosh!
Where I live, we have a siren that goes off at 10pm to signal curfew and the town tests their tornado sirens every Saturday at noon, as long as the weather is good so nobody panics thinking an actual tornado is coming.
1:14 1st tone sounds like the beginning of the Soviet anthem
no its a whelen hi lo
Ugh, the siren sounds give me goose bumps.
Thank you for making us overly safe. Xoxo we appreciate all news reporters.
Attack tone : wailing
Alert tone : long alert
Hi lo tone : fire alert or other
Pulse tone : flood
Alternate wail tone : tornado or flood
Fast wail tone : nuclear attacks
------------------------------------------------------------
Growls : just a quick test of the siren
All these sound 3 mins growl wont sound 3 mins
Pulse mean nuclear meltdown
@@Ultimate2T22 in most country attack is for nuclear bombing and just bombings and pulse is in most country,s flood
Ive lived in canada my entire life. Ive never ever heard one of these
I have lived in Europe for my entire life and i never even seen one
0:01 this is not Carter. This is sound of two sirens. These sirens are Whelen Vortex and 2810.
It sounds like a carter tho right?
ActionFire yes
1:26 sounds like a wolf
SiberianMicrophone 19 *attack/fast wail*
We literally get like no tools or education to even tell us what each mean. The government should implement this in our schools. I'm in college now but it'd have been nice to have been familiarized with the sirens back in highschool.
BHAHA the flooding alarm is my school fire alarm 😂
In my area alert is for thunderstorms and tests, wail is for tornadoes, fast wail is for any nuclear attack/ air raid, and pulse is for chemicals, and hi - lo is for flood and fire.
if I hear this I am out off town fuck that.
It's all fun and games till the siren plays in the woods.
It's all fun and games till the siren plays in the woods and you check it out it was just a normal siren they put in the woods for gods knows. And its more fun and games
Well, I do hope that I never hear the fast wail signal.
Or *attack* because it really tells you that there will be a *what you don’t wish* AN ATTACK
@@mjt777x8 I thought the fast wail signal was the attack signal, what is normal wail used for?
Wail is same as attack. Attack means of a bomb threat or a wildfire nearby. Fast wail is normally used for radiological hazards or wildfire.
@@Ultimate2T22 Normal wail and fast wail are two different tones, but fair enough. Hawaii uses normal wail to signal a nuclear attack.
@@Ultimate2T22 Really? I never knew Attack meant a wildfire. I thought the "FIRE" tone was for fires.
Lol did you guys see the part when they showed a thunderbolt but played a whelen sound?
idk about other places but here in Nebraska and Kansas the sirens will go off once a tornado warning is issued and again if an actual tornado touches down or is very likely to touch down
Kille78 that is also the case in Ohio.
The fast wail is what my county uses for tornado warnings
"They certainly get you're attention"
no siren in more unsettling than the classical nuclear bomb threat siren in my opinion
You don't have to tell me that more than once.
Yet the flood alarm/siren is tested once every 2 weeks around here.
I literally live within walking distance of the Northern part of the Delaware River.
It's aloud and scary sound . But when there there's no other way that are there for your protection.
who remembers the good ol days when a false alarms freaked out a whole state? good thing im a florida man
personaly i love those sounds
1:15
The 2nd siren is tested on a Bi-Weekly basis in the part of the U.S. that I live in. Then again I do live with in walking distance of the Northern End of the Delaware River.
>_> In Australia brisbane they have Whellen signals that alert flood. >_> Why my life has to be in that place?
The sirens in this video are a thunderbolt 1000t which looks like a square trumpet. A Whelan 4004 or vortex r4. And a whelan 2810 aka the black speaker siren. Reminds me of a tower of hockey pucks
Interesting use for the high-low tone. Around here I think the only one used is just the regular siren, and many sirens lack the capability to do the high-low tone since it wasn't used much. Most sirens can only do alert and attack modes. AFAIK, the original meaning of the high-low tone has been lost to history. I've also been witness to a test in attack mode, which is concerning when you actually know what attack mode is and means.
hearing a siren up close is worse than sticking a needle up your ears
For some reason I feel like if the nuclear attack siren went off and I was there, I would have a heart attack before the bomb even hit us 😂
0:01 My sirens in Ohio
The flood one sounds like the intruder alert alarm sound from my old school
A CTI owned Thunderbolt never seen that before
It's like what you're grandfather said if you here a siren go seek shelter
So THAT'S why the test lasts three minutes.
0:26 ...that's not hat a thunderbolt siren sounds like
And most ppl gone ignore it thinking its just a bunch of loud fire trucks driving nearby
The company I worked for had the same alarm for fires and tornados. We had a tornado warning and a lot of people went outside!
Love the showing of the Thunderbolts 😍
Guy:The one i hope to never hear is the one to warn you about a nuclear attack
Also Guy: sounds the same siren he hopes to not hear
_They certainly get your attention_
no one:
the thumbnail: *T H U N D E R B O L T*
No.Is CTI SMR-1000T
Levi Diniz shut up
to clear things up
single tone doesnt mean anything, some sirens are dual tone (Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1000T for example) and some are single tone (Whelen WPS 4004). but the actual difference is the signal. a steady sound dual tone or single is Alert which is basically saying there is a storm watch. the wailing signal is called attack. This means that there is a tornado or servere storm and you need to shelter NOW. there is also a Hi Lo signal were a dual tone siren is switching between the tones. im not completely sure what it means but probably a fire signal or other storm thing. alternate wail is the same as Hi Lo but with the attack signal. it basically switches between the hi tone and lo tone while also in a wailing signal. Pulse and pulse wail are pulse tones (single tone or dual depending on the siren) and pulse wail is just pulse + Attack. i dont know what they mean but its nearly universal. also there are different types of sirens but thats another topic.
also some county emergency offices sometimes dont use the signals for their listed purpose. and sometimes only use one. it really depends on what state and county and what they wanna do and what they know about sirens and what not
Just incase some people know do not go off by this video if you hear one of these tones, different counties use different tones for different emergencies.
WHEN THE SIRENS GO OFF ME BE LIKE FRICK FRICK FRICK HELP ME
Their flood tone is my city's tornado tone
thank you fro this video this helped me alot.
yo can we get the broken Chicago tornado siren?
Siren Head?
@@aidenhalloweenfan no thry always use that chicago siren for sirenhead which gets more boring and boring
It's not a broken siren ffs it's a hi-lo purposely doing that to echo around buildings to let people in metropolitan areas hear of a tornado warning.
Those alarms scare me
We need the sirens in Roanoke VA!!!!!!
A CTI thunderbolt????
Crazy Noah wtf I just noticed that
it sounds like Bert from Elmo's World LOL
I like it but I hope I don't hear nuke sign
I’m starting a petition to change every siren to Sponge Monger from Spongebob Squarepants.
I am living in Moore, OK. I can say that sirens are LOUD.
nuclear war one gave me goosebumps
Attack tone you mean?
Yes, no fire tone.
Today I heard like.. Loud honks and they were like 10 seconds each accompanied by sirens an octave higher than nirmal..???
late, but they were likely doing repairs or testing on the sirens.
This is really giving me chills..
the last tone when he said "Nuclear warning tone" Gave me lots of chills
Maybe it's SIREN HEAD NOOOOOO
What about a tsunami warning tone
do ppl rlly think that sirens are gonna go off for 3785 years during the apocalypse until it's ended? Someones not gonna survive lmaoo
These things go off near my house like 3 times a week but nothing happens. I live in Delaware😂
We have them where I live
The attack signal sounds nothing like the real attack signal other than it goes “eEeEeE oOoOoOoO eEeEeEe”
Nuclear warning sounds like a doggy
It’s almost 1am and our sirens just went off. It just beeped for like 30 seconds and stopped… I can’t figure out what that even means
Me: I didn’t even hit you that hard.
My brother:
We're do you go
At the thumbnail is my favourite siren (federal signal thunderbolt)
The nuclear siren sound like one of my toy fire trucks
0:31 no way they use the weather channel instead of regular national weather service equipment 💀
The tone for the tornado here is the same for an attack, hmmm...
I need one of these. I need it in my backyard, to annoy my neighbors
Jay L360 Me too.....
but I'm in a townhouse so no backyard:(
First one is steady wail, second one is hi lo and third is fast wail
There's Tornado Sirens which warns you about Tornadoes
There's Nuke Sirens which warns you about Nukes
and there's Siren Head, which produces a sound so loud it kills you instantly
The flood one sounds like a european ambulance
The opening siren is creepy
LAkingsfan46 I always hear those sirens
LAkingsfan46 I live there
You think that’s creepy? Listen to what a Chicago tornado siren sounds like
I live in southern israel it is scarier
