I love Dublin's siren's but I wish they would sound for 30 seconds instead of 5. The wail tone by Whelen and the Attack tone are my favorite. Dublin's sirens are great
Well that was at least their intent with having a system separate from the rest of the county, to be able to sound their sirens for other things. I was told by someone who was in Dublin once that they did sound for a severe storm warning but maybe it was just a one time thing.
I know there is a 4004 just a half mile away at the Hilliard Parks and Rec park. I hear it every Wednesday and see it. Theres the one at Davidson, also I found out and saw it over there in brown township if you take scioto darby creek rd west a mile before u hit walker rd theres a 4004.
Gotcha. I didn't see this one on the map I had so I never knew it was there. It also sounds like the closest county siren (by Hilliard-Davidson I think) might be an older 4004. It has the really quick windup and a really slow wind down like a low pitched 3016.
thecompanycar if you could say.. but I believe on the whelen sirens on the different options and sounds theres a test mode or noon test mode thats quick.
I was in Gahanna the other day and they still have their Thunderbolt up. I'm not sure if it still works but it's still up. It's on 62 at the end of Alger Rd. just west of downtown Gahanna.
I believe Dublin uses wail for tornado warnings and they use the noon test signal for Wednesday noon tests which is basically like you said a mini alert, only lasting a few seconds. I've also heard of them using the air-horn tone for severe thunderstorm warnings but I have yet to hear them in person. I have a video on my account from a nighttime tornado warning for Madison or Union County where you can hear Dublin's sirens in wail. They're pretty spooky sounding.
Yeah I miss read that website. It says 4004's 3000's meaning 3016's. Can I ask you a question about Dublins siren system. Some of the sirens do a whelen wail what's the name of the other siren sound they use. It's not a wail its like a mini alert held for 30 seconds.
As for the Thunderbolts, I want to say that they've officially all been replaced but there may still be 3 left. Most of the new ones I've heard sound slightly higher pitched than the normal 4004s. They sound at a pitch of around 560hz which is somewhere between the normal 4004s and the 3016s.
My understanding was that they've always ordered 4004s. The website has them listed as 4000s so it's not out of the question, but that's what I've understood is that all the new ones they ordered are 4004s.
oh ok cool. I just looked at the EMA website and saw there locations it had 4003 and 4004. But I could be mistaken. Do we still have any more thunderbolts? I know we have 3016's.
