Unidentified Noise Keeping Suitland Residents Up at Night (Washington, DC)
NBCwashington ^ | 7-31-21 | Darcy Spencer

Residents of Suitland, Maryland, say an unidentified siren sounds off regularly through the night, making it difficult to sleep.

They want to know where the noise is coming from and they want it to stop so they can get some sleep.

“It sounds kind of like a combination of a tornado siren and a spaceship taking off, like the siren from the ‘Purge’ movies,” resident Scott Bovarnick said.

People have complained about loud noises in the area of Prince George’s County on and off for years.

“We have a lot of young families in the neighborhood, a lot of children, and I know it’s probably keeping them up,” Bovarnick said. “A lot of my neighbors are having trouble sleeping, and it’s disturbing.”

This is a global phenomenon

Weatherwatch: ‘apocalyptic’ sky sounds baffle experts
From celestial trumpets to ‘Darth Vader breathing’, mysterious noises from above have been heard around the world during lockdown

During the months of lockdown, people have heard and recorded strange sounds seemingly emanating from the sky. Some believe these are celestial trumpets heralding the apocalypse; there may be other explanations.

The sounds – heard in the US, Mexico, Slovakia, Italy, Brazil and Argentina – do not seem to correspond to angelic heralds. Some resembled aircraft noises when there were no planes flying. A sound in Bratislava was described as “Darth Vader breathing”, while a recording from Colorado was like a shrieking whistle. Another recorded over several evenings at Lake Garda was more of a vibration...

Very weird sounding. Gotta say that sound would kind of freak me out at night.

I’d be looking for that sound source with a few friends, possibly Mr. Smith, Ms. Wesson, Ivan Mosin, and Sir Nagant.

My mother worked in DC and live at Suitland during WWII. She became a Cryptologic Administrative Secretary there.

She met my father the day they both arrived in DC. Outside of Union Station. He was on his way to Europe and waited several weeks until his convoy was gathered.

Very similar. A short in an old system from the past causing this?

Why is the word purge coming up so frequently this week?

It’s probably something like Waste Management trucks dumping off waste and running something to further process the waste so it can go to a landfill. And in that area as big as it is both Metropolitan and Industrial, it never stops working.

I grew up where we got 2 or 3 sirens every spring. The town got hit 3 times that I recall, with minor damage and light injuries,

Probably because of the real life shootings during a recent ‘purge’ movie.....
...the purge begins and ends with a siren

Is the district intentionally sleep depriving residents to make them agitated enough that they go off on each other so the government can claim race wars have begun?
