The Siren Board

Davis Besse Nuclear Power Plant in Northern Ohio likely had a system of Hurricanes back in the 1970s and 80s. They have all been sinced removed and scrapped.

Evidence. The clipping is from 1981. I figured this was common knowledge.

Ah thanks! I hadn't seen that before.

Several other Nuclear Plants had Hurricanes. Cook in Michigan, Crystal River in Florida, Kewaunee in Wisconsin, And Point Beach in Wisconsin.

I don’t think Point Beach or Kewaunee had hurricanes, but I could be wrong. All I know they had a system of P-50s, RM-130s, A Cyclone and Allertor.

They could have had hurricanes for a bit before getting them swapped with a different siren as most places that had them did.

Kewaunee had hurricanes back in the 1970s and 80s. I also saw another post stating that Point Beach had them, for a time.

Neat! The only info I could find about Point Beach's old system is that they had P-50s, RM-127s, a Cyclone and an Allertor.

All remains of Kewaunees ACA Hurricanes are now gone. Just like Davis Besse, Cook, Baxter, Crystal River, Garland, Point Beach and others. Its so sad that a once not so rare gem is extremely hard to find nowadays.
