Joliet Tornado Warning

[nick4204life1]

Oh yeah there weren't no sirens when the Tornado Hit. Only after. & 30 minutes before it hit. Gay huh...

[nick4204life1]

Weird that Ive stumbled upon this video.Damage wasent horrible my roof was gone & the neighbors.It landed 100yds behind Walgreens Crossed J. st. Hit the Flower Shop,Subdock, Apartments behind Flower Shop(Yellow House Across from Subdock) Then my house the continued down thru the Cathedral Area. stopped at Western & Nicholson.Im old enough to have seen the Plainfeild F5 I remember it Rained Shingles.My Mom drove over there & it was just devastated.This was a small one I don't wanna see a Big One.

[nick4204life1]

This Tornado came down right across the street from my house, Corner Jefferson St. & William St. Right behide Subdock. It was the fuckin scariest thing ever. I was smoking a joint looking out my window(I.E. 420) The sky got black & then I ran down stairs. I seen it come down over Jefferson St. & then the house was in a black cloud with green flash's all over (transformers breaking) It was frickin horrible. But nothing compared to the plainfeild tornado that was an F5.This was an F1.

[gamer200021]

The siren in this video sounds like a T-125/128/135. Is it?

[CoolBalla15]

That is definitely a T-135/P-50. :)

[SanFran90]

@CoolBalla15: Right up until a few months ago, this{or something very similar} was what my town used for tornado sirens.

[storm095]

[nitrostang50]

[ComputerTechCentral]

You know there's a Joliet in Illinois. And right next to it there's a Romeo Vile.

[guy9mike]

I remember this. I was just coming home. The wind grabbed the door out of my hand but the door just like suspened and didn't bang against the banister. Then a bit later I walked out and saw all the debris. I lived in the Catherdal area one block of Western where most of the damage was.

[dc9421]

[evilfreddy2006]

Federal 2001's are still the creepiest from far away. Watch the clip of the guy who is filiming from the 47th floor in down town chicago. Creepy vid

[kylex102]

i seen that one too. its scary as fuck.

[evilfreddy2006]

I never knew what kind of sirens my town has, but now know they have the american Signal Tempest-135AC. Im in aurora not to far from joliet

[JaxieBoy]

This sounds almost exactly like the siren we have where I live.

[trainboy99]

i remember that day i was scared to death but that was win i live i chanahon i moved 3 years later

[MNsane]

sounds just like the Tomah, Wisconsin siren

[KyleProkup]

the tornadoes were in my backyard and the field behind my house in granville. i stayed in the basment till' they left the yard.

[BLSminionCFH]

This was on my 13th birthday.

[CoolBalla15]

That's a T-135.

[parkman35]

This was the storm that hit the Cathedral neighborhood area of Joliet I believe. In teh Joliet/Plainfield area the sirens will be activated in a second if things get rough.

[Feminim]

Haha Sounds Funny! I've never heard a siren like this before!

[mirtica583]

thouse are some weird tornado sirens! what kind are they?

[Thunderbolt1003kid]

They are American Signal P50s producing 135db @100 ft. this siren has recently been redesigned to have battery back-up and is only single tone now. This siren has a 50 horse power motor. They do sound creepy but cool!

[wiccancat0016]

i live about 30 mintues south of Kankakee and i kinda remember to storms, there was some damage but i don't think any touch down.

[wrestlingrocks347]

i live in joliet but i dont remember this

[Cooterrob]

This was on April 20th 2004... the tornado that desroyed the town of Utica, IL whcih killed 8 people and did a lot of damage to Granville. I was there with my fire dept. for search and rescue.

[RayAir1]

It sounds like my drunk neighbor blowing into his coronet

[DandyMandy1987]

Joliet is my town neighbor (I live in Plainfield) and I love hearing this kind of siren. Was this the year when the tornado was on Ingalls or something?

[pokeregions]

I think it was. It knocked down my tree. Yup, that close.

[beaudaciouse]

yes they do still make the tempest 135 ac siren im getting one

[jayhawk29]

Pfft, really? Can we have some proof of that?

[tyler752]

Nope the T-135 AC was replaced by the T-132 DC, check your resources before posting igorant statements. The new T-132 DC looks exactly like the T-128 but much larger.

[Federal3t22]

sounds like he's suffering from superspiel syndrome. symptoms are claiming you are getting or have sirens that no one has or will remotely have in their collection such as a square horned hurricane or in this case a T-135, just to gain popularity. now when I post about getting a siren, and I do own 5 sirens, I prove it. sorry to drag this on, but it bugs me when people do things like this.

[JaxieBoy]

I hear ya loud and clear.

I used to know a retarded kid in my gym class, who claimed he had a bunch of dirtbikes and s***.

He was probably lying, of course.

[KyleProkup]

lol, you think i was lying?? granville is in putnam county, the old elementry got hit so they moved the kids from that school to the school in hennipen and the 5th graders into my old Jr. High.

[JaxieBoy]

Sorry, I was referring to that retarded kid I was talking about.

You know, the kid who said he had a bunch of dirtbikes?

[clubkid4life03]

what kind of siren is that?!?

[Federal3t22]

That is an american Signal Tempest-135AC. This was the largest siren ever made. ASC no longer makes this siren.

[Mushkthx]

Lol actually the biggest ones ever made were the Chrysler air raid sirens...

But yes, I beleive those are the biggest ones found in use.

[stoneaged92]

The Chrysler sirens are huge. And since its powered by a HEMI, it has to be pretty loud. I wonder if anyone has or can upload of that thing in action.

[clubkid4life03]

what kind of siren is that?!?

[minonkracer]

Man you guys have a wierd sounding tornado siren
