I'm going to be prepared, I'm shutting my phone, TV, and radio off between noon and about 4 pm.
Same..... compete power-down here. Not to sound conspiratorial, but this part had me wondering about the real reason for this 'alert': "In case the Oct. 4 test is postponed due to widespread severe weather or other significant events, the back-up testing date is Oct. 11. " Wait a minute, isn't this a test to determine the effectiveness of the two systems IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY?? Yet bad weather will postpone the tests...... hmmmm.... never trust FEMA.
"Not to sound conspiratorial.." Proceeds to sound conspiratorial....
Cancelling drills for real-world weather events is perfectly normal.
They have been testing tornado sirens around here on the first Monday of the month for the past 40 years. But if there is a chance of severe weather on the first Monday they will cancel the test so people don't confuse the test with the real thing and mistakenly ignore it.
My goodness some of you guys need to put away the tin foil. What the heck is shutting off you radios going to do? Keep the mind control waves out of your cerebellum?
