The Spring Storm (EAS Scenario)

This scenario contains valid EAS tones, I'm not responsible for any activation resulting from this video.
Based on spring storms southern California faced earlier in 2017, but cranked up to 11. A variety of new visuals and techniques were utilized in this scenario, and like always a lot of research went into this one as well. I decided to go back to the times of the CRS (program that runs NWR before the new BMH system) using Tom and Donna TTS voices for alerts. The way the alerts were worded as well as the voices that were utilized were modified based on real-life depictions of stations used in this scenario. While this scenario is a bit on the short side, it was highly experimental in nature and I hope to use this format in future scenarios!

Typo noted on some screens in this video. KWO39 should be KWO37 (KWO39 is in Chicago). I need more sleep.

[@TheOwoshiArchive]

SPCparamus8900 I make EAS Videos too. Check them out, and I'm available if you need help. Make sure to comment on one of my EAS Videos if you need help. Also, maybe we can collab sometime!

[@BlaineK]

Do you take requests for scenarios?

[@kyliecraft5850]

SPCparamus8900 I actually had this happen to me. My town had part tornadoes part floods. Luckily, my home wasn't damaged. :D

[@dewpoint8900]

Good for you! Thanks for watching!

[@kyliecraft5850]

SPCparamus8900 YASSS U RESPONDED!! :DD

[@stampycatfan01lol]

Description: "...but cranked up to 11." My mind: *We Are Number One plays but it's earrape*

[@thecutetornadosiren401]

Lol

[@jayfeather31]

Glad to see that you're back.

[@dewpoint8900]

It's great to be back! :)

[@MollyBarth8601]

I feel like all the guys who make EAS Scenarios are like best buds. Really soon im gonna create a channel and make them too :)

[@easalert88]

This may be coming from one of the old breed, but Excellent work on this scenario.

[@jnerdsblog]

The ambient storm noises were a nice touch!

[@ricklarose7002]

"20 minutes later in Chavez Ravine. Clayton Kirschaw blows another post season game." Seriously though, another great presentation!

[@undergroundyt2262]

Lmaoooo that made me die. You a brewer fan?

[@nash6662]

the bg noises are really soothing, especially during the FFW

[@WheelerYT]

Great job Paramaus!!! That was really interesting to watch!

[@BlaineK]

Agreed.

[@luckypaperclip]

Ahh yes, the days of the CRS, and also the days when I was trying so hard to get the Tom voice (and I still am) in this pronounciation style.

[@thedawkturr4481]

As someone whose lived in SoCal for all their life, I know exactly how we'd respond: " #sendingthoughtsandprayers "

[@IUseRandomPfps]

holy shit, that's so true. in reality, we just all sit there and say "sucks to be you."

[@ellaferry6059]

20:26 I don’t know why does this siren sound effect sounds a little similar to the siren from the movie called “the mist”

[@HurricanePatrick]

"Damaging wands," lol

[@selfryed]

Lmbooo

[@marzx6782]

Fairies are deadly then if that’s the case.

[@winniethepoohandeeyore2]

LOL! IKR! Like 1 called Utah Yew ta

[@ROBLOXGamingDavid]

Friday The 13th Detected! But at least Jason Voorheez / Voorhees should not be there during the spring storm.

[@ClayRanger143]

Nice job Paramus! I can see you did something similar to my TORE in my Weather Disaster 3 scenario ;). Anyways, great job!

[@dewpoint8900]

Tbh, I actually just made it up on my own. xD Thanks.

[@AnEAShasbeenissued]

air raid sirens in Los Angeles County are not operational. Also I hear a Whelen and Orange County is full of them.

[@veemi_]

i think a storm like this in LA is extremely unlikely, it couldve been in oklahoma or some spot that has storms somewhat like this would be better, keep up the good work tho

[@dewpoint8900]

Southern California can get nasty storms. Just look at the monsoon season and they get a couple of flash flood warnings each year. A tornado warning is less likely, but possible. I intentionally didn't escalate any warnings to emergency levels because that's not common in SoCal.

[@amygriffith8224]

I like the lil details of the thunder in the backround.

[@JohnDoe-gh8sk]

The storm hits home

[@TheOwoshiArchive]

Name of the siren in the tornado warning?

[@dewpoint8900]

No idea, the sound was derived from a royalty-free sound website. The description didn't mention anything about the sirens.

[@actionfire4036]

My guess is a whelen 4004 and I think I can hear a modulator

[@dklucas1]

He needs to make one of California falling into the pacific ocean during a really strong earthquake 😆

[@ariannagorbet6674]

Luckily, that storm was south of me and I didn’t get hit by tornadoes.

[@ariannagorbet6674]

Thanks. California needs that rain, I’m not kidding.

[@ericsnyter5292]

I love your eas stuff I love hearing when I have a warning on my phone lol

[@JamesTube]

You should change the sampling rate to 8k hz to make it sound more like a radio

[@keybored13]

"here's the latest from the national weather service:" (demonic screeching)

[@ericsantos7893]

I am surprised that they didn't add the city of Montclair in the eas Scenario videos.

[@theM12]

By transmitter near sandburg , it means station WZ2505.

[@dinolover]

Not gonna lie, that was a pretty dope storm

[@toemad1805]

Omg i loved it!

[@olliegoria]

As someone who lives in Southern California, I can guarantee that everyone and their mother would be flipping their shit and not knowing a thing about what to do.

[@dewpoint8900]

True. As a resident in NJ, I wouldn't know how to react to earthquakes.

[@olliegoria]

Don't feel bad, I don't either. Great video though, and I am looking forward to Part II of your Infection: Act II series!

[@finmueller7827]

Dude nice vid!

[@anthrax0349]

Background noise really killed it

[@dewpoint8900]

This is meant to imitate sounds produced by a radio, so there's a lot of static and relayed sounds. If you don't like it, there are many other scenarios that don't add the extra sound.

[@jnerdsblog]

Right around 2:40 I do believe the Text-to-Voice guy mentions gusty wands? Just a heads-up! e: Seems to happen whenever the voice tries to say 'winds.'

[@dewpoint8900]

TTS voices; at least the ones I use, tend to confuse wind (v.) with wind (n.). There's not much I could do to change that. In real life, NWR voices do mispronounce locations and one station I know mistakes "or" for "OR [Oregon]".

[@fadingbeleifs]

jnerdsblog sometimes the speech systems NOAA uses don't get words quite right... The ones in Chicago do it all the time...

[@KanawhaCountyWX]

@@dewpoint8900 stations in my area, not only weather radio but FM, also say Oregon instead of ore. You can see this in a few of my EAS catches. I'm based out of the Charleston West Virginia area.

My bad, must've been a typo that slipped past me.

[@RailRoadRex439]

I thought they were both in Southern California

[@ShogunMS]

I've wanted to know, what is the font name you use for the scenario?

[@stephaniedoan7114]

Good morning

[@Galactipod]

0:49 My left ear enjoyed this radio broadcast. Try testing your audio on headphones before uploading.

[@dewpoint8900]

The modifications I made to the audio were intentionally altered on one side. There's nothing much I can do to balance the audio.

[@Galactipod]

"altered" I'm assuming you already know I meant the audio is only on one side and it's silence on the other?

[@dewpoint8900]

Check your headphones, the audio was definitely on both sides on my end. Either that, or an error occurred during the uploading process.

[@Galactipod]

Try plugging in your headphones and watch the video on KZbin.

[@dewpoint8900]

Just did, it's on both sides.

[@commondirtbagz7130]

What do you mean by activations?

[@SuperEASfan24]

Bro how did u get Tom's voice to sound closer to what it sounded like on NOAA weather radio?

[@dewpoint8900]

Well I used real examples of alerts for Tom to read. I didn't modify the TTS voice in any way; only added some modifiers to make it sound like it comes from a radio.

[@SuperEASfan24]

SPCparamus8900 thanks for the input!

[@toypilfferer653]

why aint you making scenarios anymore?

[@dewpoint8900]

Lack of interest, busy life, and immature comments by some people.
