On my way out of Lake Geneva, I stopped by to take Photos of the ACA Cyclone in Williams Bay.

This is really cool, is this siren still in use? What is/was it used for?

Nope, there's a new Whelen 2910 about 500 feet northeast of where that Cyclone. The Cyclone itself is shut off.

There was actually an attempt to record this siren last year, but sadly it had just been disconnected.

It will most likely get taken down and then scrapped...

Well it’s been more than a year since they replaced it so that most likely will Not happen.

I think Williams Bay will preserve this siren for historical purposes.
