The answer is: With a prediction of a deadly storm season, the alert system is needed immediately. 

Answer:

I believe the best answer to be the second option: If past history is an indication, the sirens will save hundreds of lives.

Explanation:

The word history can be defined as a sequence of past events connected to something or someone, or even the study of such past events. It is redundant to say "past history", since the word history already has "past" as an inner characteristic of its meaning.
