Calhan's tornado siren. It is a Federal Signal 500-DH-TT (aka 550AT)
Calhan's Tornado Warning Protocol calls for 1x one minute activation for tornado warning, and a 3 minute "Alert" tone to signal an All-Clear. On test day, the siren is sounded for one minute - three times successively, and a three minute final activation.
An "Attack" has been used in the past for a tornado warning when one was spotted just east of Calhan on 8/09/2004.
It is tested once annually at 7:00PM the first Friday in May.
Due to some discussion with the town's EMA, We are getting a generator and a timer/remote activation capability added to the siren. Right now, its just an on/off switch in the police station. With a remote activate, the Office of Emergency Management in Colorado Springs will now be able to activate it ahead of storms and other emergencies.
Next item on the list is to get monthly testing (during severe weather season) and on the state's Severe Weather Awareness day.
