What was air raid sirens in world war 2?

Go out and buy a World War 2 documentary. I remember once as a child hearing the air raid sirens all go off in wakefield, UK. Yes you could go and buy a video from world war two, you could search 'carter air raid siren' on the web... Carter being the UK air raid siren, and that will be close. It is a two tone siren that raises and falls in pitch, but they do not have the effects caused by space, there are some Doppler effects from sirens further away, and the whole effect is more mournful than you can imagine, stood in the streets very late at night with this siren wailing from our local town hall, the echos from the town and village halls in surrounding areas..... and other small groups of people stood in silence apart from the wailing of the sirens.


What could have prenvented World War 2?

Preventing world war 1 would have prevented world war 2. If Hitler was killed in ww1 well Fighting that would have left Germany out of the war. Japan Might have still done waht they did but I don't think that would make it a world war, just a war.

Why is there an air raid siren in grays Essex and what is it used for?

It's probably an old air raid siren left over from the second world war and subsequently the cold war. Most where removed after the stand down of the ROC (Royal Observer Corp) and the UKWMO (UK Weapons Monitoring Organisation) after the collapse of the Berlin wall and the end of the cold war. Some have been left in place as a flood defence warning system near rivers at risk of flooding or in coastal area's. I hope this helps

How many sirens mean tornado?

If you have the question that relates to how many sirens mean a tornado, the answer is... It kind of depends where you live because I know that some counties in Wisconsin only have one siren and that is the tornado siren so like I said it depends where you live. Another type of siren is the war siren or some people know it as the bomb siren. That means that people are trying to bomb you. And then there is the Wildfire siren. That means get out of the area because a wildfire has started near you, but that is mainly in the southern states like Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
