Originally recorded 7/8/2020
So I decided to take a trip down to Apex to record this nice 2910 that is part of the nearby Nuclear Power Plant's System. This replaced a Thunderbolt 1000 in 2007. This one is very healthy, and pretty loud. There were some men who jumped because they were surprised. But as always, it was a fun experience, actually my first recording ever, and props to Duke Energy who set it off on time.

Sirens for SHNPP are tested on the second Wednesday of January, April, and July. It was sprinkling a little, so I had my doubts. The talking in the beginning is my mom thinking that it was cancelled due to the weather.

Edit: Sorry for not mentioning it, but the full 3-minute alert is on the second Wednesday of October.

Very cool, but also very underwhelming. I almost detoured to catch the last test, but I would have expected a 3-minute blast!

i agree. The 3 minute blast you were talking about is only in October. Maybe we can meet up for that somewhere? P.S. The growl tests are in January, April, and July.

Maybe so! Good to know about the full test being in October
