Weird Sound From Wind Turbine

Eerie.

[@jtunheimr8657]

It's possible that the one blade has cracks from weathering so the cracks opens a bit and starts whistling the tip of the blade is really fast some turbines have blade tips passing with over 300mph

[@joeduca8582]

Three possibilities, #1: a warning to the mother ship on the storming of Area 51, or #2 a plea for some WD 40, or ( most likely ) #3 a cry for more of your awesome fly tying videos ;o) Thanks Peter!

[@mikedubuc1696]

That is clearly a land whale call...

[@Wordsnwood]

seems connected to just one blade - I replayed the vid and it only happened when the one blade came around. Of course that was a sample size of just two spins. Hope they have a maintenance contract on that thing...

I was working in the woods near this same windmill about 9 years ago on a much windier say. It was shrieking back then, and way louder.

@@petercollin5670 9 years ago? I would have burned that shit to the ground

Blade was wisthling

[@fredfable5655]

needs a ball bearing replacement...call maintenance.

[@vincentrobinette1507]

That's exactly what it sounds like to me: It is a very "metallic" sound. If it is a bearing, it DOES need to be addressed immediately!

[@Fernandoh183]

That wind turbine needs some WD-40, and what is WD-40 made from? Oil!

[@xenochaosxc]

Any ROI may be offset by maintenance costs, and way more offset by annoyance and obstruction.

[@xenochaosxc]

@Gregster return on investment.

[@jadenquest9544]

Ah the rare sound of a wind turbine mating call
