On 9/12/19, I returned back to my apartment from my classes at around 1:50 PM. I noticed my weather radios had gone off for a tornado warning for Rochelle, IL and I figured that DeKalb would be next to be hit. So, I set up my cameras and waited for the storm to come. Around 3:00 PM, the national weather service issued a severe thunderstorm warning, catching me off guard. Shortly afterward, the storm began to intensify and before I knew it at 3:33 PM, a tornado warning was issued for DeKalb! Shortly after, DeKalb fire dispatch activated all the 2001s in the city, and let them run a full 10 minutes. It was pouring rain when they went off hence why I didn't go set up a camera in my parking lot where you could see a DC round back and instead opted for an ambiance instead. At some point, I did run outside with one of my cameras to see the round back which I included in this video at 8:38. I got very lucky this time around and the tornadic storm ended up passing to the south. According to a rumor, a funnel cloud was spotted over Hinkley, but that was about all that happened in this storm. Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy the video!

Thanks for the main points. It was really nice.
Nice
If this happened while I was in DeKalb that would’ve been amazing
I Love To Hear That Federal Signal 2001-DC Round Back
Love TOR vids like this. This is what I try to do with mine with a bit of news coverage. Those sirens were activated too late imo though. Amazing job!
Thanks! I timed how long it took to activate them from EAS to DTMF drop and it was a whole 10 minutes. The phone EAS alert took 15 minutes however. Next time I hope it’s not pouring rain so I can run to that round back.
Montecat 33 yeah that’s way too late considering average lead time on a TOR is about 12 mins (I think).
Really they should be going off within about a minute of each other.
@@progenitor_amborella I believe that my county activates their sirens about right after the TOR header tones are broadcast through the local NOAA weather radio station that serves my area.
@@Montecat33 lmao thats terrible.
@@Montecat33 how does fire dispatch activate and deactivate the city tornado sirens?
The fact that this video still shows up on my recommended is a testament to your channel’s quality, keep it up my dude!
FS 2001-DC Roundback: YOU ARE IN THE RESCTRICTED AIRSPACE!! DIVERT YOUR COURSE, OR YOU WILL BE SHOT DOWN!!!!!!!
Tornado: okay. I will divert course now😭😭😭
LMFAO!!!!!
I've just discovered that it's possible to get cancer by looking at a comment
This video was good! Very CREEPY too! There were tornado sirens going off for practice when i was downtown Wednesday and I was trying take a video but it was too late. But next month if it does it again I need to go out there and audio recorded
Way too long to sound sirens. Sirens should’ve sounded asap
Creepy how sunny it gets afterward
Dang, they run the sirens for 10 minutes how does that not burn up the motor?
Federal Signal mechanical sirens have a duty cycle of 15 minutes. Running them for 10 minutes at a time isn’t necessarily recommended but it won’t hurt them.
@@SWMOWoodsman Oh, ok. That’s good to know
Dekalb only as 2001s and I’m quite sad about it has there used to be ACA Hurricane sirens here
counties in my area activate the siren networks in alert for 3 minutes. i believe the sirens go off every 5 minutes or so. they continue activating them every 5 minutes until the warning expires.
Maybe those things are ment to last forever?
i like the 2001 Ambience
I go to UW-Whitewater and we got hit by the same storm. I’ve never experienced a thunderstorm quite like that. No siren activation here though. Glad you guys are safe
arey721 Nice. You know WW is getting new sirens right?
Yeah I saw one of the new 508’s near campus
@@Montecat33 You guys are lucky you got sirens to record. The only sirens I was able to record were the Arlington (NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH TEXAS DAMMIT!), Tennessee sirens. They are tied into the Memphis, TN siren system so they go off every Wednesday at 3:30 PM CST. Here in my hometown we have no sirens to record until you go across the Alabama Border, to the nearest siren which is 4 hours away! That would take a lotta courage to do!
I like how you got the dispatchers talking on the radio. What do you use for that type of stuff?
When I heard the tones come through yesterday I was like SIRENS!!!! Then I ran downstairs with my phone going BEEP BEEP BEEP. I only got a video of my Model L not the P-50.
Sadness. The p-50 probably would have sounded better with the storm.
4:21 we have the annoying siren
My local tornado sirens are EAS activated so the second a tornado warning gets issued they go off
Yeah Tornado Sirens Are Meant To Keep Sounding For A Full Day Even
Cool video new subscriber
Hi, Montecat33,
What is it like to be a trained weather spotter?
Bibi
2001s are better than people give them credit for.
Fr, especially the older ones. The first time I heard a 2nd generation 2001, it was extremely loud from 400 feet and made me cover my ears which a 130 didn’t do. IMO the older ones are very good, especially if you give them better controls
at our town we have a 2001 siren
What NOAA radio is that? The black and silver one?
How far away from the sirens are you?
Pretty epic ambience,
Hi prospect
Paul reads messages sooo slow. Tom would've finished right away
True
Willing to bet the reason the thumbnail is illuminated is because lightning
Psych you thought
You live by a 2001 DC round back?!
My house was hit by the tornado I was in the basement but now I have a bigger house in texas
It's a 2001 roundback!
That’s a round back
ROUNDBACK!
Wait…
is that the place that originally had 3 MKIs?
yes dekalb had 3 aca hurricane 130s
@@vantaaaxone of which was a 1968 prototype 10/12 version, the others were standard MK1 models. Unknown port ratios on the other two.
@@spanishFriedEggsOnCZcams I know, but I wish that the 1968 one with the weird tube rotator was still about
@@vantaaax I do too, the one they had was brown. Its most likely been scrapped unfortunately
@@spanishFriedEggsOnCZcams it was brown? what a strange colour to pick. I wonder if it was painted brown or if they had the colour impregnated into the fibreglass
Also weird they have the sirens go the whole time instead of three minutes or three minutes off and on
I agree, in general a bad practice. 10 minutes is pushing the duty cycle.
@Hmmm Hmmm as I said. It's pushing it.
@@SimplexSys it's not
I’d say it’s a 2001 DC
Pore de federal signal 2001 siren
I guess this 2001-SRN/DC roundback replaced a ACA Hurricane 130 MK-l because of a partial system failure from a tornado warning in 1989. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACA_Hurricane
Possibly, all 3 of their hurricanes were replaced, and their system was expanded with more sirens. It’s possible that this one did, or this could have been an addition.
I thought it was a 500
You live close to the siren! Is it too loud?
Yeah is the siren
cloud
@@Danielle54534 I live near tornado siren in my home because my school is near the siren

ok, jokester, this is the wrong tone used for tornado warnings.

One of the NOAA weather radios seen at the start was a WR-120
