I'm just curious, Are there any sirens in and around the area? I know there's a Thunderbeam near ther, and there's a Thunderbolt atop Birmingham City hall.
Are there any others?
Oh yeah, Jefferson County (where Birmingham is located) has about 250 sirens in operation across the county. Most of your more interesting sirens are going to be down toward Hoover and the surrounding area (south of B'ham), which would be mainly Thunderbolts. Of those, the most interesting one I can think of is in SW Hoover near South Shades Crest Elementary off of S Shades Crest Road, up on the side of a small cell tower. There's another standard run-of-the-mill Thunderbolt installation over by some warehouse-type building on Loma Ridge Drive, in eastern Hoover. Other than that, I can't quite think of any specific ones off the top of my head. Good luck!
