Which sentence should be revised to eliminate redundancy?

The town of Belmond, Iowa, needs to add weather sirens.
The loud and steady wail would warn citizens of approaching danger.
If past history is an indication, the sirens will save hundreds of lives.
With a prediction of a deadly storm season, the alert system is needed immediately.

Answer 5

I'm not entirely sure but possibly "The loud and steady wail would warn citizens of approaching danger." That could be redundant as it's basically just stating what a weather siren is.
