Sedgewick County Siren Locations?

[Thunderboltlover]

Has anyone seen RideOp74's videos of several of Witchita's t-bolts going off? He has an awesome recording of one in attack!

Sedgwick County does have a few Whelen Vortexs...and Newton has a system of Whelens. Thanks for showing the map. I havn't had any time so I have not been on md5 and I's map but your map has locations ours dont.

As Far as I know there are Only Two. There's TONS of em in Butler County! Sedgwick Installed their System in 1956 leading into 1961. That's Why Our System is Called ' All Or Nothing' As it Sets off ALL of the Countie's 101 Sirens no matter where the Storm is. Wichita has about 63 Thunderbolts and a Whelen which I'm None too far from.

How many of each kind of t-bolt does Witchita have?

Wichita has tons of Thunderbolts...that is the majority of their system.

That is what I've heard, but I never expected to see any just driving through on our way back to Colorado. I also heard they have a few Whelens?

Also, north of Wichita in Newton I saw 5-6 2906s, in Hesston, a 2001, in McPherson also a 2001, and a few Thunderbolts in Salina.

This is semi-unrelated, but based off of that and some other sirens I have seen through Kansas, I made a map of everything I have found and sent it to kwsx29 for some locations to add to his map. I haven't made a big deal of it because I didn't want it to seem like I was taking their idea and it was something to do in the LOADS of spare time I've had lately. Anyway, here is the map to look at.

The thunderbolt siren on this map that is in wichita next to I35 is at the East High School. That is actually a 1000 single tone. not a dual tone 1000t. There is a video of it on You Tube.

Thanks for the correction, although I didn't even know I still had that map lol... Google Maps has been murdering my already slow computer, so I haven't done much with it in a while.
