Why am I so attracted to sirens?

Sirens sirens everywhere! Everywhere I look I see sirens, I look at siren videos all the time, I hear sirens even though there are few sirens in Canada, I can't help it:...I like sirens.

@nuzzi7 Either a basement, saferoom, or cellar. I live near Tulsa which is 100 miles NE of OKC and ours are tested every wednesday at noon, they are so loud you can hear them 4-6 miles away. Back in the 90s when I was in elementary, we had one on the playground and it went off during recess, you plugged your ears. It is spooky to hear them go off and its not noon wednesday.

@MegaGansta24 Going into your basement helps if the house doesn't collapse on you. If the house is simply blown away, then yeah, a basement will be very safe.

I started to wonder what torando sirens sound like.. rofl I've never been in a torando situation before. Now I know just incase i stay up one night. And the Torando siren rings so I can wake up my parents.

@toiletsrock44 Whelen 4004 or 4003. Not 3016, because it only has four horns.
