If you have a chance, stop by the station and ask them about it. Curious myself.

Confirmed that Engine 271 (Arrowbear) was dispatched at 4:46am to a Medical Aid on Deer Lick. Responded with Medic Ambulance 91 out of Lake Arrowhead. Assuming the siren you heard was the one on engine 271. Maybe they upgraded to the new air raid model of siren??

Thanks SCM, I see the incident which triggered it. This was a siren we’ve never heard before, truly more like air raid siren than a typical fire/EMS siren. Made me grab my phone like the goal was to wake residents up and warn us about something. Hopefully a faulty siren on a piece of equipment and not a new normal.

Sorry 4:55*, apologies had a bit of a rude awakening.

What on earth is with that new siren at Arrowbear Fire? Turned on around 4:45 and went on for over 5 minutes, turned off once they had wheels rolling and normal siren running. Can hear it clear as day in Running Springs. Are we trying to be like Bishop and summon volunteers to the station with an air raid siren or what? Because that is absolutely obnoxious.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO:

Have a great day from all of us at SCM!

@moco, i’m tempted to agree with you, but the comparison is unfair to the third world.
