What if we cannot hear the tornado siren?

Tornado FAQs - Middle Tennessee State University
As a Building Runner, you will receive a “Take Shelter Alert” via email, and you should take action. As far as an “All Clear,” as a rule of thumb, wait 20 minutes, then call Public Safety (2424) to make sure it is all right to send people back to their offices and classrooms. If you have a weather radio in your office, you can take your cues from that regarding a warning and an all-clear.

Q1: Since the 866F is installed inside the seat of the bike, can you hear the siren well?

CYCLONE FAQ
In our opinion, yes. CYCLONE produces a very high frequency sound that penetrates the seat and can easily be heard from several yards/meters away. The siren blast is not as loud as an average car alarm (making CYCLONE significantly less irritating to your neighbors), but loud enough to alert others to a theft attempt. And to further reduce noise pollution, the 866F has a "soft chirp" feature which drops the volume of confirmation chirps several dB from the full siren blast.

Why do I hear a siren sound when I try to place outgoing calls?

Frequently Asked Questions
More than likely the phone call you made did not go through to the person you were trying to reach. Try your call again, this time make sure you hang the phone up for at least 5 seconds before picking up the phone and stay on the line for your call to be connected. Frequently, if a person dials too fast, our phone doesn't hear all the digits and returns the siren tones. Slow down the dialling slightly and the call will probably go through.

How do we hear?

Hearing is a series of events in which the ear converts sound waves into electrical signals and causes nerve impulses to be sent to the brain where they are interpreted as sound. The ear has three main parts: the outer, middle, and inner ear. Sound waves enter through the outer ear and reach the middle ear, where they cause the ear drum to vibrate. The vibrations are transmitted through three tiny bones in the middle ear called the ossicles.

Can there be a tornado after dark?

USATODAY.com
Tornadoes frequently occur after dark. Much of the time, the thunderstorms that spawn tornadoes grow during the afternoon. They often reach their peak and begin creating tornadoes late in the afternoon. Once they begin, tornadoes can last well into the evening, sometimes until after midnight. Tornadoes have even hit in the very early morning, although this is rare. The deadly tornado that struck Camilla, Georgia on Feb. 13 and 14, 2000, hit after dark.

The past few days, a MySpace survey has been circulating among my friends. Typical questions include "What was your best month?" and "What will you remember 2006 for?" I filled it out, and I realized that the year didn't pass as quickly as I thought it had. January seems like a long time ago. Things that weren't in my life at the beginning of the year are now part of my daily routine, and things that I thought I couldn't live without I don't even think about anymore.
