I found some aerial shots of the Hurricane on the Jefferson Elementary School in Kenosha! The Hurricane wasn't in any of the aerials after the 2005 aerial as far as I know of (they were way too blurry), so it may have been removed sometime after that.

- 2005 Aerial, you can see the yellow of the horn.

I don't know if this is something else, but in the 2010 aerial it looks like there's a hurricane blower shaped object in the exact spot it used to be in. They must have taken the horn off and left either the blower mount or the blower until they changed the roof in 2015!

- The blower or the blower mount?

What's strange is that I couldn't seem to find any of the other Hurricanes in Kenosha except for this one. Was this one the last to go? I'm pretty sure they would remove them around the same time.

WV Siren Productions said there was a rumor that a Hurricane was in West Virginia, so I will look at news archives and papers from 1968 - 1981.

I did find one in Louisiana but it just said “130 decibel siren” and somewhere in the 70s idk if it’s a hurricane or something else

Were there any other sirens that were marketed as 130 DB sirens? I don’t think there was.

ASC RM-130
Also a healthy Thunderbolt 1000 can hit 130DBL, although it's not advertised.

Yeah, but the RM-130 didn’t exist at the time of that article.

Man that’s unfortunate, I’ll add this.
