  • Kendall County was placed under a Tornado Warning this afternoon after NWS Doppler radar showed a storm capable of producing a tornado. The sirens were activated, and fire departments sent out their spotters. No tornadic activity was reported and the Warning expired at 14:15 hrs.
    Sirens are ASC T-128s.

    For some reason, sirens really freak me out. Like just imagine you sleeping, or having a party, and you hear that siren, and you just know utter destruction is coming.

      Like two years ago there was a tornado heading in my direction, at my house the sirens caned on three times in a row. But there was no tornado heading are direction. We went back to sleep after a while and turns out there’s another tornado

      In Cedar Rapids Iowa the sirens went off before the bad Derecho 8 10 2020 and it was eerily calm before that storm too then about 2 to 4 minutes after the sirens shut down the shelf cloud and Derecho came in and did alot of damage. Did these sirens in Yorkville go off before that Derecho when it came into Illinois from Iowa on 8 10?

It went off one time for a tornado watch not a warning when I was at work startled me especially when I saw it was a tornado watch for our area. This was in March 2019 and not in a tornado prone area, especially in March

      It differs due to siren type and the preference of the city/county. Usually, they are not placed next to somebody's house, rather at the nearest park, school, fire department, etc. Sirens are typically placed between 1 and 2 miles apart.
