The Cuyahoga County Siren Fiasco

Recorded on 11/2/24
Today was quite interesting. Jack and I had made plans to see if the southerly Jailbar would finally work. I started hearing this thing back in August, but I wasn't 100% sure if it was actually southerly since everybody thought it was dead. Also, idk why, but CVD has loved testing super early since this is the 3rd month in a row that they've tested 8 minutes early. Finally, at 12:07, tones for this thing drops and the 72 year old thunderbolt roars to life. Unfortunately, the rotator is broken, but hopefully, the city can do something about it. Jack and I were so happy this beast went off, and for being almost half a mile away, it was pretty potent. That just goes to show how powerful A1 blowers are. We hope you enjoyed this little crazy day that we had, like, and subscribed, and stay tuned for the next test!

I don't know whether my favorite part of the day was nearly shitting my pants over this thing going off in the distance, or the Red Robin chicken sandwich I had afterwards 💀

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

I'd say southerly was prob better

[@Mungabung]

Nice camera view

[@thespiritstingray9359]

I audibly gasped when I saw this. Finally, after so long, it's been filmed. Excellent work, thank you for doing this

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

It was only a matter of time

[@sirensofgahannaOhio]

Another really old bolt has been recorded, how amazing 🎉

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

@@sirensofgahannaOhio yes indeed

[@SirenGirl2001]

I wonder how many other old sirens are out there that we assume are dead simply because they don’t rotate

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

Yeah we assumed this thing died years ago but it works now!

[@ILwarntech]

Well done!

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

Thanks!

[@OWS_Crazy1]

Awesome

[@kansasclocksandsirens]

Damn. Glad it works.
Am I tweaking, or can I hear the blower even from that distance?

[@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens]

No, we were way too far to hear the blower, plus it's on the other side of the building

[@kansasclocksandsirens]

@@OhioOutdoorWarningSirens It's probably just the pulse messing with me
