Re: Sirens seem getting replaced on google maps.

(Notice: I’m not sure where this fits in so I picked the closest thing) I though it would be interesting to note a 1000T thunderbolt being replaced captured on google street view. This is located in sandwich IL Dropped pin https://maps.app.goo.gl/YaHRihdsG6V5GEQs5?g_st=ic I have no idea what’s ther...

Re: Recently discovered an issue with McKenzie, TN sirens…

It may be a polygon-based system. If that's the case, then the sirens outside the polygon (+- some if their coverage is in it) will not sound. None of my city was under the polygon spot. Most of the county was, but there is no nearby town with tornado sirens that I would be able to hear.. No nearby...

Re: Recently discovered an issue with McKenzie, TN sirens…

That’s a serious issue you got right there, as I have personal experience of not being able to hear a siren go off when it’s one mile away from me and in clear conditions. Considering what all happened last night with the endless amount of TOR:E’s, someone needs to do something about this so the pu...

Recently discovered an issue with McKenzie, TN sirens…

Last night, we got put under a tornado warning. I expected to hear sirens, like what I heard when somebody reported a funnel over McKenzie. The sirens back then ran in attack. They were loud, because I heard all 3 sirens. I was in the kitchen, and kind of heard it, because it was in attack and heard...

I love to talk about that and my music teacher who lives in Paris told me that she had a tornado nearby but never heard and sirens. The town is large with one single head Sterli...

How do people find the sirens for a siren map?

I see a lot of people using a website that shows all sirens with coverage areas, but I look online and never find anything. The USA Siren Map on google helps a bit, but how did they get those siren locations on the map?

-I am new to the siren community..

Re: sirens on top or near schools

Oh dear goodness, When I was in 1st grade, I went to a school in Upper Darby, PA. There is a fire house with a Modulator Siren next to it. Every day, that siren would go off and interrupt class. It was very loud. The school is a different school today, but I can imagine the looks on the kids faces w...
