(pitch fluctuation) FS 2001 power interruption (?) during 80mph winds on March 2, 2023 Carrollton TX
@SirenArchives might find this interesting.
On 3/2/23 the DFW area got issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning with hazards of 80mph winds. In northern Carrollton, the sirens went off for the first warning (not this video) at around 6 pm, then were later activated again for a second warning of the same hazard. As they sounded the second time the storm began to arrive and then the wind, rain, etc. all picked up. And due to that, power flashes began to happen all around me. One of those power flashes interrupted (and maybe almost damaged) the closest OWS to my location, a Federal Signal 2001-SRN, which like the other ones in the city are highly out of pitch.
They continued to work afterwards though, but either way they probably need replacement.
And also, this wasn't the last time they were activated for a Severe Thunderstorm Warning with 80mph winds. that happened again at 5:45 am on 5/28/24 with 90mph winds. still no damage that time.

Brand New 2001-130 Outdoor Warning Siren - Lewisville, TX Monthly Test - BEAUTIFUL Full Attack

Out of everything that could have happened, I didn't expect this. Lewisville, Texas recently added a couple Federal Signal 2001-130s to its Outdoor Warning Siren System. Today, I went out with @dallasrailfanner3870 to see one of the new 2001-130s installed recently. The city normally uses Whelen Vortex R4s, but to my knowledge they also have a WPS-2906 and WPS-2810, which apparently do voice. T...

I guess Dallas just decides to send out the codes and then decides it's enough after at least one minute. Either that, or they're just pushing a button and releasing it like 90 seconds later.

Unexpected OKC Outdoor Warning Siren Test - 11/4/23 Whelen 2810 560hz Ambience

After leaving a train show, I was surprised to hear Oklahoma City's outdoor warning sirens going off. I shortly pulled out my phone to record in case it was a siren, and of course it was. It was only a test, but it surprised me because I don't know the test schedule. I knew OKC had sirens but I never knew their schedule, so this of course shocked me.

    It's more of a power interruption than anything else but that pitch fluctuation is wild. 0:07 also that slight cut in the audio isnt the siren being cut off for a moment, it's just that the audio was cut off somewhere

  • @dfwstormsandsirens
    @dfwstormsandsirens 2 місяці тому

    For anyone who wants context: This happened just after 5:30 AM on the morning of Tuesday, May 28, 2024. I personally woke up to the power flickering and then the sound of wind and rain, went out to the living room, saw how bad it was, and started filming. I filmed for a good 20 seconds, but about a minute later we got issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning with hazards of 80mph wind gusts, which then was followed by the activation of the Outdoor Warning Sirens in the city of Carrollton. The activation and warning were well too late, as the storm had already been hitting for a couple minutes, and it seems that Carrollton only set the sirens off due to the warning, which makes sense considering the time of day and that there could've been a chance they didn't go off, but schools canceled classes and people were severely delayed after the 90mph winds did damage all across Carrollton and most of it to my apartment. However I dont believe anyone was hurt but the peak winds were 95 - 96 mph in The Colony, and those same winds died down only a little bit before hitting Carrollton. This was basically a bow echo (derecho but a lot smaller).

But I ask a friend of mine if this maybe August they would probably do a Thunderbolt 1000 again this summer to set it off for us again. they could do a Station 11 Station 45 Station 48 Station 55 Station 31 any Stations they could set it off the older Thunderbolt 1000's again this summer.

    If you turn your volume up all the way at the beginning, you will hear the ambiance of a Thunderbolt 1000/1000T from Dallas. I was in northern Carrollton when I filmed this, so that's just to prove how loud those things really are. Despite them being inactive, there are a few departments out there that still use them lol And yes, i know Farmers Branch has similar sounding sirens, but there is a pretty noticeable discrepancy between Dallas' thunderbolts and some of FB's whelens. In this video you can almost perfectly hear the ambiance of one of the tbolts. I dont know how it was possible to hear it, but yeah.

      I believe FB and Addison were customized by Goddard Enterprises in about 2015. Reason I say that? I was sitting in a bedroom back in the day during a tornado warning, doing nothing but minding my own business. Then I heard what I thought sounded like cars passing over a highway, but since there isn't a highway nearby within about a mile/half mile from my home, I realized it was the sound of the first siren. But at that time I didn't know what was going on, so I was like "meh, it's just a storm" when an EF4 was hitting the city about 20 miles away.

    If yall are wondering about the house and that door closing and opening by itself, there's an explanation to that. This house is my grandparents' house. They moved in to that house almost 40 years ago iirc. While the house is most certainly not haunted despite its age, it is very old, and is slowly collapsing. The room I filmed in at the start is the living room. The walls look like that because they're obviously wood. As for the door, that is the bathroom. It is usually always left open with a lamp on in there. Next to the toilet is a window which has a screen but is always left open for various reasons. Now this wind almost reached peak winds, with the peak winds being 59 mph, and our area only got one mph less. The wind was strong enough to move the door open and shut. While the environment looks ominous and haunted due to the lack of lighting throughout most of the house, I can promise you that this house is most definitely not haunted. I can tell because I have had some paranormal experiences. If you want to, I'll tell you about them. But let's not get off topic here. Anyways, when I shine the flashlight at the bathroom, you can see colored handprints and barely readable text. Well the handprints are just something I did when I was much younger. FYI, I didn't get ahold of some paint and put handprints all over the walls; I was allowed to. As for the text, it's just a "tradition" at this point.
