I did nothing to alter this video. What you are seeing and hearing is extremely unusual. Hurricane Ike (what was left of it) blew through Cincinnati with 50 - 75mph winds. The whistling sound you hear is the strong winds whipping through the metal high tension electric wire supports. This video was recorded behind the McDonald's on Mt. Carmel- Tobasco Rd, off of Beechmont Ave, in Cincinnati.

  • This video was apart of a accuweather article. Good Job

  • @josephneely25- Oh? Do you have a link?

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

  • excellent.

    take care

  • 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?

  • @CincinnatiGifts you can't post links on youtube comments, but I'll message you

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

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

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

  • that caused alot of damage.

  • 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.
