Drive-By Siren Ambience 6/1/2020 | Huntingburg, IN (Dubois Co.Tornado Siren Test)

I decided to try something a little bit out of the ordinary and did a drive-by siren test in Huntingburg. Siren coverage in this town is pretty saturated, especially with the old sirens in place. Unfortunately, the Model 7 at the utilities office has been having problems lately and failed this test. It usually does five minutes of attack. I've been told it's being decommissioned, but I also heard they were fixing it. Hopefully the latter is true. We started our drive at OFS's 2001-SRN and worked our way to the 2001-SRN by the railroad tracks. Then we dashed over to the new 2001-130 that replaced an STH-10, once we realized the Model 7 wasn't working.

With the exception of Jasper, Dubois County tests the sirens every first day of the month at 6PM. A simulated tornado warning is issued within 911 dispatch and the sirens are sounded for the full cycle. They recently completed an upgrade and now they poll the sirens as they're being tested.

Enjoy, and as always comment, like, and subscribe for more. Thanks!
