Swiss Air Raid Sirens



On February 1st every year, the Swiss test their air raid sirens. Here is what they sound like. This startles us every year until we remember they are testing! As an added bonus, you get to see our current bitterly cold weather and snow.

I was surprised as well. We also had a bunch of planes flying overhead in formation here in Zurich -- did that happen where you're at as well? For a minute I was worried that it perhaps wasn't a drill...

That did not happen here. That would give you pause!
