my city is over using tornado sirens, again. as usual. every year it’s the same thing.
this time there are no clouds in our skies what so ever. there’s a very small cell to the south west of my town that’s headed this way, and when I say “very small cell” I mean that I could draw it in a bout 3 seconds with a pencil.
but the sirens are blaring away.
why? because some town to the south west of us has a twister.
nevermind the fact that it would take 20 minutes to get here, assuming that the twister even remained on the ground for that long. on the they go, and they’ll run for probably around 30 minutes.
No one here pays attention to them. this city is going to get people killed becuse of this shit.
hell, my father just took the dog for a walk. yep, people are real concerned.
bah.
I don’t want a twister to hit, obviouisly, I just want my city to get their heads out of their asses. this crying wolf crap has to stop. if a twister ever does come through so many people here are going to die because they cry wolf like this year after year, multiple times per year, and we’ve all learned to ignore the sirens. well, as best as one CAN ignore the blaring noise of a tornado siren.
someone to the south west of us is going through a hell of an experience right now though. I sure hope that they’re all okay.
oh, by the way, this marks the third or fourth night in a row that they’ve ran the sirens.
