Here is my submission for FSMC Challenge #4

https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?hl=e ... ZkUlVzzYTk

Kenton County Decided that due to the rising tensions with the USSR, it would be in their best interest to install Civil Defense Sirens. In 1975, a year after the deadly tornado outbreak, they secured that decision and bought 10 Federal Signal Thunderbolt 1000s. This upgrade also included making the numerous fire sirens all part of the county system. In 2006, as the population was growing, the county enlisted the help of Mr. Clayton Werden to install 7 of his P-127 sirens in these small communities. This would pay off in the long run, as the penetrating sound of his quality sirens were able to be heard miles away, where as other sirens couldn't reach. In 2012, after the fatal tornado that destroyed rural parts of the county, the county again updated their system. They went with Sentry Sirens, as the EMA director was again smart enough to know that quality mechanical sirens are much better for reliability and safety than cheaper sirens. They purchased 11 20V2Ts and 11 7V8-Bs. These powerful sirens were sure to last and create a dependable warning system for the citizens of Kenton County.

Here is my submission:

https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit? ... -QdfKqXSRc

In 1982, Kenton County, KY decided to install civil defense sirens. The sirens installed are:
54 Thunderbolt 1000Ts,
4 2T22s,
and 9 Model 2Ts.

-
In 2005, the county installed an additional 14 Model 2 sirens to fill in coverage gaps.
-
After receiving a grant, the county started replacing the old sirens with Eclipse 8s and 508s from the north to the south in 2010.
-
Keep in mind that this map was made to show how the replacing process went.

-
*Activation Protocol*
3 min. Alert = Severe Thunderstorm Warning
3 min. Attack = Tornado Warning
3 min. Fast Wail = Fire Call/Flood
1 Sec. Growl + 30 sec. Alert, Attack, and Fast Wail = Test

Thanks!

(Oh, and what happened to the Thunderbolt Siren custom icon? It seems to have disappeared from the image listing,
