I was deep in the woods in Nova Scotia, Canada when I heard the same noise coming through the trees, just like someone was playing a half full glass of wine it wasn't overly windy though, In fact it was very quite, Ive always wonder what made the noise, perhaps it has something to do with those power lines?

This video was apart of a accuweather article. Good Job

nice capture! didn't see strong gusts of wind though! :)

[terminator6267]

oh no!!! an emission is approaching find cover immediately!!!!!!!!

[FunkyJohn1]

I remember this. Our electricity was out for like 4 days.

[mow1717]

that caused alot of damage.

[MilwaukeeSkywarn]

This is a very common noise heard by many ham radio storm spotters when driving.

I would often hear when driving between 55-65 MPH. Other and antennas and other speeds did not produce the whistle.

I guess you just had to be there, but I do appreciate moments like that, love the wind in the trees.

Ooooh, that was weird. I do have a penchant for the unusual and surreal. Both thumbs up and a 5 star rating to you :)

That IS eerie! That windstorm took all of us by surprise. We had roof damage and half of our porch railing blew down into the yard. Luckily, I moved my car out of the driveway just in time! Whew!

I rode out Katrina in the New Orleans area and live near high voltage power lines such as this one. When the storm peaked just after daybreak I heard this loud whistle that, to me, sounded like an old-timey train. I went dow to the stairwell and determined that the whiste was coming from the power lines or the towers that held them up. I'd never heard a sound like that before. In addition, the towers would rock back and forth at times during the gusts and change the pitch of the whistle. Weird!

[Ubstudios]

Creepy noise!

[theWrockVideos]

I lived on the Indiana side where the storm hit. We lost trees and at times the wind would start to go very fast and wouldn't stop. no electric for a few days, but fortunately we got it back quickly. There was corn stalks EVERYWHERE and power lines were all across the roads. It was insane here.

Great video!

i loved that storm because i was off all week

[chizzywoo]

Sorry, i didnt mean the wind was unusual. I knew you meant the whining of the wind going through the pylon, but as I said, I live opposite a one of them and I hear that whistling everytime the wind gets high, so not unsual - for me anyways. Its a lovely sound isn't it? :)

[chizzywoo]

I have a pylon directly opposite my house that makes the same sound when the wind picks up off the sea. I live in the Uk, so no tornado sirens here...it's definately the sound of the wind in the wires and the pylon Its a great clip, I love watching and listening to the wind, but I dont see what extremely unusal. Sorry.

[CincinnatiGifts]

The wind is not what is unusual. It is the whistling noise that is unusual. I am 39 years old and have never heard such a noise coming from the wind.

[mojorisen74]

I was looking out my bedroom window at the pines swaying back and forth, then all of a sudden they bent completely sideways. One healthy tree broke and fell into the woods. The dead one next to it survived! We were fortunate, the only damage that happend to our home was the phone line went with the tree. 5 houses across the street, that were only built 5 years ago had the shingles puled off. They don't build homes like they used to!

[MistressReba]

Living here in Northern KY there were NO Warning Sirens, and the wind was loud, eerie, and NEVER have I seen anything last as long as this did!

This Storm was unreal. Way worse than the tornado's we had here in the 80's that's for sure.

Great Video sounds captured here, thanks!

[CincinnatiGifts]

Mother nature is incredible. Just one strong hurricane packs enough power equivalent to a million atomic bomb blasts.

[TSXboy26]

thats cool. Creepy!! Can't believe it was still blowing like that up there. It was pretty crazy here in Houston, the wind that night. My building was rocking.

[geocam2]

That was cool Now you should go back when it is raining or snowing and record the buzzing sound from the coronal discharge. It can be pretty loud. Bring a fluorescent tube and it will light as well.

[kevin45244]

That was pretty cool! I live over in Newtown near a couple of elec towers and heard something similar. Didn't get it on video tho. Good work :)

[CincinnatiGifts]

I tend to keep a digital cam in each of my vehicles, ready to record the most unusual things to add to YouTube. Earlier this month I was able to capture a car on fire on 275 in NKy, very close to 471, immediately after the EBN Labor Day fireworks. Someone else in Mt. Adams managed to record & YouTube a completely different car fire downtown on 471 just two days prior.

The sounds in this video just might possibly have been tornado sirens, although I think it is highly unlikely.

[BellyJae]

I almost thought it was a tornado siren. It sounded just like a Federal 2001 SNRB.

[CincinnatiGifts]

Help us out... what is SNRB?

[BellyJae]

i think its just the model type....

[CincinnatiGifts]

Huh? Model type?
