I was using the historic imagery on Google Earth and was able to get a overview shot on one of Cook Nuclear's Hurricane a year before removal (The one right by a grassy field). I believe I also found aerial imagery of Minnetonka's MK1 by the highway, however that may be an old light since the blower looks to be missing.
Wow I hope it is the 130

I randomly looked at the Hurricane map and saw the location marked in St. Petersburg, FL. I have pretty good knowledge of past sirens in the Tampa Bay area having lived there and done some research.
St. Petersburg's system consisted entirely of T-Bolts. Most were building mounted.
Does anyone know where the pic came from? Says it was replaced by a Whelen. Now, there are a few possibilities. I suspect it might be one of the beach communities like Redington Shores.
EDIT: On second thought, this is probably a Crystal River nuclear plant siren.
