Seems like your state has gotten the brunt of the bad alerts. Either not getting alerts or getting fake alerts like the incoming nuke from North Korea or whatever it was back then.
Yeah, that missile one was crazy. And I woke up and read the message about 10mins after it was expected to hit. Had no idea if I should be running somewhere or just kissing my own ass goodbye.
I’m also wondering if we’re not included in this test since we’re disconnected far from the mainland and have our own system. Though tbf, the mobile phone alerts here worked during the fires, except for the area where the cell towers and power lines were out and were needed the most. So that alert problem was a different problem. The tsunami sirens not going off because someone thought everyone would run uphill into the fires was just plain human incompetence. They’re solar powered and with batteries, and satellite connected, so could have been used any time.
