Here's how the alert sirens sound at the N.J. nuclear power plant
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 січ 2019
- 70-plus emergency sirens around the Artificial Island nuclear generating complex were tested on Tuesday. The sirens -- 34 in New Jersey and 37 in Delaware -- located within the 10-mile radius of the three reactors operated by PSEG Nuclear will sound for three minutes.
They are part of the alert system that would inform those living near the Artificial Island complex in case of an emergency at one of the nuclear plants. Read: www.nj.com/salem/index.ssf/20...

It didn't fly off when the sirens started, so I'm assuming it's a statue. Maybe it's a sort of scarecrow to keep birds from landing on it?

I guess New Jersey's main goal is to blow up, and then act like it don't know nobodayy *psychotic laughter ensues*
We used to hear these all the time back in school. I always thought it was a tornado siren but thought it was weird we'd have something like that in New Jersey. Never in a million years would i have thought it was from a nuclear power plant
I mean it could still be many things, air sirens are used for various types of emergencys.
There's a siren I used to hear a lot in Delaware, it was really distinctive - not this one, and I'm trying to figure out what it was.
You'd think they'd actually tell the public what these various sirens mean and way of identifying if a siren going off is a test or real. If they don't tell us what they mean then what's the point of having them?
where in jersey is this? i live in north jersey
Was that at hope creek or oyster creek in Lacey?
Did they not teach you about nuclear plant safety in school? We lived within the 10 miles EPZ for one, and I remember getting whole-ass nuclear safety classes in 1st grade.
I watched this then got an ad about cooking in the toilet like wtf

My college was near a chemistry plant thingy and only once the siren went off and I shat myself, sounded just like this
Deaf people: “why is everyone panicking for no reason?”
Deaf: "And why is there black smoke rising from the nuclear reactor?"
I know this a joke but i think that if this happens they can feel the vibrations of the siren idk tho
@@mongeau98Deaf: And why did I just get an additional arm?
Generally sirens are loud enough that you can feel the vibrations when they go off
I do feel like they could at least put some lights on them or something

I got used to these types of sirens because of all the chemical industry in my town and the surrounding area. Every first Wednesday at 12pm they would test the sirens that they use to signify a chemical leak. All the schools in the county even have special lockdowns in place just in case. At first, I would freak out because I ate lunch outside then I would realize its just Wednesday lol
*Chemicals leak*
*Sirens sound*
Me who has no idea what day it is, "Damn my milk just expired"
What if there's actually a chemical leak at 12pm on a Wednesday 😂
Is no one gonna talk about the owl at the beginning 😂
that's a dummy to keep birds and bats out. we have some in my town to keep them from building nests in certain places.
Irfan Jamaluddin I have a pic of my owl
It is fake owl so that birds don't make a nest on the siren which could clog it.

So apparently I made a mistake. It’s NOT used for bingo. That’s a lie that my aunt told me.
They’re just used for whenever there’s an emergency such as a fire or a car crash or something.

Oh and it’s also used for drills.
We still do hear it all the time though. At least once a day ...

Yeah you're like so random and an individual. Nobody is as creative and random as you.
NO
I did too I don’t know why
Let' be honest when the siren sounds for 5 minutes it's too late anyway.
Yeah taking time is your enemy when an incident occurs and the alarm shouldn't sound that long no matter what
If they're going to do a test, then everyone should be notified ahead of time so no one panics. Having an alarm blare for 5 minutes is an extreme waste of time for those who could be using that time to get to a safe distance.
Why is that?
@@agentmaryland1239 Wasn't the public informed of the test? And does the alarm sounding prevent you from getting to a safe distance?
@@agentmaryland1239 they most likely test at the same time on the same day of every month. I know around here tornado siren tests are the first Monday of every month at noon.
Well, it's been over a week since the sirens went off, and I'm feeling just fine! Typing this with 3 hands yo all.
I don't have an extra leg since I have a third one already
But, now I have three hands for that leg
Plot twist: it's not the siren, it's the owl at 0:05 that makes the sound
I grew up in a town that is the home of my country's only nuclear power plant. There the sirens are tested on the first Monday of every month (unless that day is a national holiday, in this case they move the test to the next Monday) at 1 pm. I moved to the capital city about 10 years ago and forgot about these tests. Last year I started to work from home every day due to COVID and it turns out there are tests here too, because there is a chemical plant nearby. The only difference is the tests here are scheduled at 11 am, that gets me every time.
Damn it Homer, we told you no more donuts on the machines
I live in New Castle Country Delaware, and I can see this thing on the horizon from 20 miles away. It is absolutely massive.
My dad lives near it, mr and Teely Tau were at my dads, we heard it, we didn’t know it was a test, and we live only 2000 feet away from it, so we took cover, and I held onto a table for dear life, hoping this was only a dream. But that didn’t matter after we saw the news 😅
Citizens when the siren goes on for 3 minutes and 1 second: “Seems to be going for a while now, right Martha 😅☢️?”
Lived here, this is in Salem county NJ. It was unexpected when me and my fiance heard it and we freaked cuz we're so used to the city😂
It was actually the owl making that sound

How to survive a nuclear bomb:
1 idea: hide in the basement, if it’s 10 to 20 feet underground you should be good, cover the windows and doors with concrete, bring food and drinks that will last a few weeks, it’s the most faster way
2 idea: if you don’t have food or drinks drive away, if you know someone like your grandparents or any relatives that live far away, drive there and live there, even if you think there house is a dump, it’s a life or death situation, you have a few minutes until the bomb drops so you have to drive up to 70 to 100km an hour
3 idea: do not stare at the bomb, it will cause temporary or permanent damage to your eyes, if you don’t have a car or a motorcycle or any vehicle that can get very far away in minutes from the nuke, then just hide in the basement. If you don’t have concrete or any food or water, your dead 💀
DO NOT HIDE IN A FRIDGE
What if my house is on a hill? Like you know the nuke explodes up the hill
Alpha Gametauri what do you mean?
@@M4X1TR0N What if the nuke exploded uphill from me? Say the nuke explodes at the top of a mountain or hill, and my house is lower down the side or at the bottom.

siren head just viben
I was wondering lol
It's such an eerie sound.
Doing a great job keep it up
I'm confused on the meaning of the sign...
If the siren sounds for 3-5 minutes, then tune the radio...?
Or is it:
If the siren sounds, tune the radio and listen to it for 3-5 minutes?
@@technicalthug
How, where or when do they overlap?
I'm imagining since (for option 1) they said to listen to the siren for 3-5 minutes... That means the siren likely has more than one meaning - that meaning conveyed by how long the siren blasts. My guess, a test or something like that if it rings for 6-7+ minutes, or a "Get to cover immediately" if it rings for 1-2 minutes.
So, with this option, if it rings for at least 3 minutes, then listen to the radio.
Otherwise, it's: If it rings, then immediately listen to the radio for at least 3 minutes.
i think if it sounds for 5 minutes , may there be a problem or something and you need too get the news on the radio

We have sirens like this in Iowa where I live except it's for tornadoes. I've gotten used to them. They test 'em every Monday at 12:00 PM I think. All I know is that if they're on for more than 1 minute you're in trouble.
Once you hear this sound you're already dead.
This is untrue. Modern generation 3 and 4 nuclear power plants are inherently safe - i.e. when they lose cooling and begin to meltdown, the reaction stops, and they won't runaway like Chernobyl.
The plant may sound the siren and call for evacuation if they know something isn't working properly, and could lead to small amounts of radioactive debris from being expelled.
You probably won't even get an x-ray's worth if you evacuate with the siren.
@@shhmule I want to make a Chernobyl joke about the X-Ray thing, but 1: it's been done to death already, and 2: I don't want to sound like I'm shooting down your comment, which I agree with.
@@rprince418 People seem to think Nuclear energy is dangerous. It is, in the wrong hands. It's the nuclear waste which we don't yet have a solution to.
You can safely argue that current Nuclear Fission reactors are safer than the planned Nuclear Fusion designs.
