HEY TWIN CITIES WHAT'S UP WHAT I CAN'T HEAR YOU I SAID WHAT'S UP I SAID I CAN'T HEAR YOU IT'S WEDNESDAY
(For everyone saying “wtf” right now: many Minnesota municipalities test the severe weather warning sirens every Wed at 1pm)
@inthehands
I just asked my wife, “they still do this in the winter?” I thought it was only during the warm months when strong storms and tornadoes happen. I honestly couldn’t remember Wednesday 1 PM sirens going off last winter. (Unrelated perhaps but it’s very windy today. )
@inthehands Do they still use the old "The Time Machine" sirens from the 1960s?
@Davi_Dblees
Not sure…? But the sound hasn’t changed in the ~30 years I’ve lived here AFAIK.
@inthehands 30+ years since I've been there, but I know they used to use the Eloi summoners when I was a kid.
@Davi_Dblees
Just looked up some video of the Eloi summoner sound effect, and yeah, it sure does sound similar! Weird that we don't see Eloi all over the place here.
