    Nine years later to the day, this is still one of my favorite siren videos and one of the most amazing supercells I've ever seen in person.

    I love the sound of a Thunderbolt 1000T on tap 3, or 180v. These are all 3-phase models too.

    Thank you for uploading this. You brought back memories of that night in Springfield. I remember the lightning was constant in the sky. I was amazed because I'd never seen lightning flash over and over and over all over the sky. And the weird "stillness" soon after the light show. That's when I took cover. When it gets still like that, trouble is coming. We got a little rain after the tornado passed Wabash Ave. More tornado's formed that night in and around Springfield. Scary Night!

    Awesome video. The combination of the sirens and the thunderstorms is really eerie. I dont know how you managed to keep filming, under those circumstances i'd be running for the basement. And yes, the siren you hear is a thunderbolt. We have a lot of those in Cincinnati. They have that harsh buzzing tone to them that makes them very distinct.

    That night SUCKED!!! I was at the mall for a work meeting and ended up in the storm shelter for half the night. We could hear it outside and could really feel the pressure as it went by us. I was lucky to have a car when i went outside!!

    That was horrible night. I remember coming home with some guy after the first tornado and ended up floating on top of the car. What I remember most is looking at the clouds, though. There were completely black.

    Then the Thunderbolt we are hearing is from the Stratton building. It was installed in about 1957 and removed sometime in 2012 or 2013. I need to call the city to see what they did with them. Just to end my quest to determine what happened to the. Btw. visuals.sj-r.com/picturing-the-past/2015/1/23/looking-for-a-sound Edit: I'm wrong. Ignore this comment.

    I swear those sirens must be thunderbolts. But I can't work out what model they are. They're either Thunderbolt 1000's or 1003's. We need a person who know's about sirens better than I know. But I watched this video that was filmed in Lewisville, Ky and they have the same type of sirens from what I can here.
