I've gotten used to the sirens, its like music now, lived here long enough. They usually don't sound them until they get to the big street. Not very noticeable at night since there is less traffic. I'm about 1 block away from the station. I used to find the foghorn annoying but got used to that too.
If you lived near the beach, the waves sound nice at night. I wonder how the waves were during the storm.
