Sirens at 4am, sounds like tornado warning sirens. Any ideas ?

Could it be a construction site intrusion detection system?

My boyfriend caught them going off on video at 4:15am, but I can't find any information on what they are or why they went off. Its kinda uneasy & apocalyptic tbh...

I had the same question a few years back but I live near the Airport, the air raid siren there is part of the lightning warning system (or so I was told by Reddit).
