Siren going off really loud now: Tues, Dec 8, 2009 -- 7:35PM

Does anyone hear a loud siren going off on the north side of Wkgn right now? :?: :?:

It could not be a tornado or thunderstorm, wrong time of yr (December).

It is snowing outside but never before during a moderate snowstorm have we heard sirens go off like this.

Is something else going on??

This is very alarming !! :!: :!:

Any ideas??

I called the Wkgn Police but the lines are flooded, and same with the Wkgn Fire Dept.

The story from the police is that the siren is malfunctioning. The moisture caused a short.

I hope its resolved by my bedtime.
