A 1212 is what I saw in street view, but the picture was from 2008. Also, another Modulator was just overtaken by lava a couple days ago. You can see it at 1:55 in this video:

That sucks, first a 612 now a 3012. Another 3012 could be in trouble if that lava flow keeps creeping along the coastline.

As suspected in my last post, the other 3012 is in some deep trouble. The same lava flow which wiped out Ahalanui Beach Park is now about to destroy Issac Hale Beach Park. Hopefully the lava won't go near the 3012 but I highly doubt it. I'm giving it maybe 2 or 3 days until the park goes under permanently.

That sucks, but such is Island life. Luckily, HI will always have multiple needs for outdoor warning sirens, and I think we can expect to see Modulators for many more years.

It is a shame to see MODs and 612s getting destroyed by Lava.

In a few months your going to have 2 islands. the lava coming up is going to split the island in half. the volcano will go dormant permanently. and its now the last 1 day that the Issac Hale Beach Park 3012 will be on this earth.
It'd be bittersweet to watch the 3012 burn, because it's cool to see a siren burn but also sad because it's one of thousands of dollars worth of damage being caused.

No, the lava flow is to the south, but it looks like the Modulator at Issac Hale park was overtaken with lava earlier today.

As I said in a previous post from a couple weeks back that was a 6024B doing the whoop. The 1212 has been gone for a while.

I don't believe the 3012 was destroyed today. But from reports I read the lava is very close to the park now.

The MOD is now engulfed in lava and it's on fire. It's officialy gone now.

It is not gone, yet. But most likely later today or tonight it will be gone. Could possibly be tomorrow if the lava flow doesn't advance.
