HAPPY SWA
So for SWA this year, I wanted to do a siren that I hadn't recorded yet, but due to school, I had to stick with something local. I figured I should get a recording of this thing with better lighting, so I went here. I had my weather radio on me, waiting for the SWA alert broadcast, however, the 'Bolt fired up before the NWS sent out the alert. Not much has changed with this 'ol guy since I last recorded it, aside from the pitch fluctuations being slightly worse. It felt louder than last time, but that's probably because my hearing protection wasn't as good. At about a minute into the activation, the wind blew my camera a little bit, so I had to fix it. After the 'Bolt shuts off, you can here some of the surrounding sirens winding down.
