Originally Recorded 6/5/2021
Here's a monthly test of one of Paducah's remaining Thunderbolts. This one is located atop Lourdes Hospital. It's a very iconic siren, seen just as you enter Paducah from I-24. There's a weird delay with the rotator but other than that, it sounds great. Throughout the test you can hear another bolt peep in from time to time. I assume it's the one with the missing horn bolts which is still chugging along. I'm just glad I was able to record this one before it eventually gets replaced. I believe at this point all of Paducah's remaining Thunderbolts (and a couple that are gone) have been recorded at least once. The county has been replacing the Thunderbolts as they fail so I'm hoping to grab as many recordings from the area before it becomes 2001 land. My next goal is Lone Oak, a redo of the Concord Elem siren, an ambience, and hopefully an STH-10.
Sirens in McCracken County are tested on the first Saturday of the month at 1PM, Central. Tests are not conducted when it's overcast or on holiday weekends, though I've noticed a few exceptions to the latter.
Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. I was hoping to get this video up earlier, but problems with my editing software prevented me otherwise. Expect a more routine upload schedule to follow.

Yay you did the one on Lourdes Hospital! I saw that siren on top of that hospital on a vacation in Paducah when I was visiting my grandma!
Seems like the rotator needs some service. But other than that, it sounds very healthy! Great video as always. Never knew Paducah had another 1000T.
I'm obsessed with sirens 24/7
My school is next to that siren and my dad works at that hospital and I got at least 25 feet away from it. It is cool.
best paducah video yet
Wow! Epic video! And as always all your shots are perfect! It’s cool to see a Level 3 Thunderbolt, as you don’t really see those often.
Level 3 Thunderbolt?? What is that?
@@jaxThesirenandcountryloverthe speed of the chopper
Great recording!
You Look Like A Russian Fire Alarm
Finally, a recording of this!
Oh
Bruh
This is epic.
it is!
That thing sounds epic!

Nice video! It seems healthy other than the slipping belt for the rotator. Just needs tightening and it should be good!
Most classic thunderbolt I've seen in a hot minute
I recorded this one also, my recording is horrible lol, I also recorded another one in paducah also which is next to the cemetery. I found out paducah had thunderbolts after i watched this for the first time and i was super happy as i live next to paducah.
Absolutely outstanding video! The rotator seems to have difficulties starting.
I wouldn't say that was the rotator struggling, i'd maybe say a bad contactor.
@@childishtombino1275 or needs a belt adjusted or a new belt.
@@johndeerefan725 I'm not sure. I think youd see a lot more struggle throughout. It was perfectly fine after it started rotating. I'm fairly confident it'll be an issue on the electrical side of things.
We just moved to this area and I saw this exact Thunderbolt on top of the hospital.
My grandma lives there! She says she hears that every month
If any of those missing horn bolts or active, that would be rlly cool tosee
Dang! Your camera has some crazy range!
It doesn’t have a blower
Its inside the building
Thanks for letting me know
To also add the Paducah Gaseous diffusion plant Whelens are tested the same time as McCracken County.
Sounds very creepy
Nice! I just back home from working on a Model 2 for a local FD.
Bro, have you ever been on the Irvin S Cobb Bridge? It leads you from Paducah to Brookport, Illinois. It's the longest bridge I've ever seen and been on!
Yeah it’s a scary drive but cool nonetheless. You can see the river through the grated deck and it makes an interesting sound
Yes
Whoa that’s awesome!!
I haven’t seen you in a while
Awesome!
This is awesome
Where is the other single toned 1000?
What happened too the rotater at the beginning
Very good.
Edit: I can't think of anything else to say.
ooo i see a flying drone
I see the drone!!!
NiCe
Love this 🔊🤩👏🏻
Sounds good, but what happened to the rotator at the beginning? It was like stuck. Also 0:50 sounded epic!
Appeared to be a weird activation quirk
Belt slipping

BRUH WHERE IS THE BLOWER
Inside the hospital
Seem like it hasn’t activated for a while 4M?
Believe all of Paducah’s are 5Ms
@@indymetrosirens5643 the leaking one is 4m
I cant tell on this one to be honest. Paducah does have some 5ms on their system but they also have some 4ms.
@@thespiritstingray9359 I do hear pulsating
3:43 it’s a 4M you can hear it and there is a hole in the horn
his blower is gone😭
The blower is in the building lmao. Did you even watch the video? Because if you did, you would see the blower pipe going into the building from the drone shot
Noice
