Every Tuesday at noon, 65 air raid sirens go off all over San Francisco. People call it the noon whistle. The sound you hear is a Victory Siren. For more information on Victory Sirens, visit http://oaklandvictorysiren.com

I shot another video of the Ferry Building, complete with subtitles at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hOjo2XyWw_M

  • By the way, since the cold war is over, are these sirens being used for any type of severe weather, such as tornadoes, floods, or tsunamis? California rarely ever gets tornadoes.

  • The western and northern part of San Francisco is on the Pacific Ocean and is subject to tsunamis anywhere in the Pacific. Beyond that, the system is set up to alert people on what to do after a severe earthquake. Although I think the shaking ground might be a tip-off.

  • @ACAPenetrator50 what tone are you talking about??

  • @nick06111226 They do not have this tone, it would break the drivers. It is an ATI.

  • Wow ur stupid. If it was a victory, than it wouldn't talk. Ur so dumb
