Other Notes: After finding out this siren was recently put back up and fully working again, I just knew I had to check this thing out and I am so glad I did. It was very punchy and very loud to. However, getting there was quite terrifying. A lot of slowdowns, crashes, and morons on the road. I was originally going to arrive at 5:42 when I started heading out but because of all the crazy crap, it went up and up and up. When the ETA got to 5:57 I was so nervous. I got even more nervous seeing it hit past 6. I thought I wasn’t going to make it but by some miracle, Google Maps found an alternative route to avoid the rest of the slowdowns. Thanks to that, I was able to arrive at 5:50, giving me enough time to set up and get a great shot. It was still a lot of fun filming the bolt and I highly recommend it to those that haven’t filmed it yet.
