FEMA To Test Emergency Alert System

Last updated on Wednesday, October 3, 2018

(UNDATED) - FEMA will conduct a test this afternoon using Wireless Emergency Alerts and the broadcast of an Emergency Alert System message nationwide.

It's scheduled for 2:20 p.m.

Compatible cell phones will receive a text while radio and television stations will broadcast a test message.

This is only going to be a short test lasting about a minute to evaluate the system.
