Tornado sirens are. The. Most. Unsettling. Noise humanity can make (while chewing with its mouth closed at least).
Chicago’s siren makes me feel like an inconsolably terrified and food-poisoned 4-year-old, kidnapped to another planet.
Ah yes, the good ol' Chicago Modulators. Sadly they don't use that creepy "alternate wail" signal anymore. They just use the regular "wail" signal which isn't as haunting.
