Real Tornado Warning Sirens City of Dallas

Tornado Warning Sirens Going Off in Dallas! Here is video I took with my digital camera. I was at a friend's house when the storm rolled in. This was taken in the City of Dallas and you can hear the tornado sirens. I heard at least three different ones at one time. Then is started to hail really bad. The hail lasted about 5 minutes. There was lots of hail and it was really dark. The hail is hard to see on the camera because of how dark it got. I couldn't hear the sirens through the hail storm. Once the hail stopped, it was raining heavily and sirens could be heard again. I have lived in Dallas my whole life (except college) and have only heard the tornado sirens activate for a tornado warning three times. This was the longest I have every heard them run. I would say they ran for at least 30 minutes. I have heard them tested on Wednesdays, but rarely do we ever have to use them for a real tornado like today.

@spongebob99able Yes but not in my area. It was in South Dallas, or across town from me.

Did you live close to Northwest Highway at the time? because I could hear the 1000 T going off in there.

[020808]

@Jackthegreendog Yeah that was close to Northwest Highway, but I think there are a few 1000T in the area.
