Sirens Project

The remnants of Tropical Storm Arthur brought some heavy rain a little wind to Georgia. We didn’t even have to leave the neighborhood today before seeing some minor tree damage!

Stay safe out there. We are continuing to monitor the weather.

We are monitoring Tropical Storm Arthur for any potential local impacts over the weekend.

We are blessed to help provide training aids to other disaster response organizations!

Preparing for upcoming LERT training. Thank you, LCMS Disaster, for these awesome chainsaw teaching aids from Sirens Project!

Wiring has been the name of the game this week! Still a good bit more to do over the next two weeks before jumping back on the PUG.

We are still in the process of converting our lift to electric brakes and adding some safety measures to the skid steer as we head deeper into hurricane season.

Working on some projects over the next couple of weeks as we head into Hurricane season!

Today we added two hitch receivers to our grapple in order to move the lift around at the worksite. This was way overdue!

Next up is converting the lift brakes from hydraulic to electric. We will be back on the PUG soon as well. A lot to do this summer!

13 years ago today we chased the world’s largest tornado ever recorded near the town of El Reno, OK.

Unfortunately it claimed the lives of 8 people, including the Twistex storm chasing team. In many ways this was a pivotal moment that changed the direction of this organization.

We took a detour through Ringgold, GA on the way back from our deployment in Goodlettsville, TN.

Scars, in the form of concrete slabs, remain to this day in Ringgold as a result of the April 27, 2011 super outbreak.

The parent supercell responsible for this tornado also produced the Philadelphia, MS EF-5, Cordova, AL EF-4, and the Rainsville, AL EF-5. Evidence of what a perfectly primed atmosphere is capable of.

13 years ago we saw one of the best examples of a classic Great Plains tornado you can witness! Mobile Doppler radar recorded wind speeds of over 260mph as this tornado sat nearly stationary near Bennington, KS.

Some of the beautiful people we have had the privilege of serving today! Every single person has a story to share, and makes the hot, humid work all worth it.

We have a couple of more days here in Goodlettsville, before transitioning into preparation for hurricane season. It’s been a blessing so far!

More hangers today, and we also found a friend! 🦝🪢🪾
