Remember when GSN held their labor day 1997 marathon of TPIR. 14 half hour episodes and 11 hour long shows were shown. This is how GSN kicked off their coverage bright and early at 8am CDT that day.
ACA Allertor doing attack. This one has slow motor pickup also, but not as bad as the one on the north side.
This one is located at S. 26th and Hamilton in the city of Manitowoc and has a new (cira 2002) coat of paint on it.
An American Signal P series single toned siren being run for the weekly county wide test. This siren was installed in 1997 and is located on the corner of S.23rd and Viebahn in Manitowoc.
close up video of the late Jimmy Franklin flying his jet powered waco biplane for the crowd in the rain at the 2001 Manitowoc County airshow - June 9, 2001. Shot on DVCPRO w/ house sound being fed into the camera.
Intense lightning and near continuous thunder! Expanded video of the Labor Day 2002 storm that destroyed ladysmith wisconsin where I got knocked down by lightning.
May 19th test of the Manitowoc WI sirens in alert mode. Listen for the power surge just before the sirens start to shut down. Also includes a good example of why you should NOT test a siren.
Final video of the manty sirens. Next week (9/24) I'm moving outta state. This video solves a mystery as I now know the city has an allertor hidden very well somewhere close to where I was.
A destructive storm moves across eastern wisconsin leaving in it's path a long swath of hail damage. Forecasters only called for showers that morning, but a supercell deveolped thanks to elevated convection and the jet stream. My reaction to this is simply becasue I had woken up only 15 minutes prior to rolling tape and was not expecting such a fierce storm.
