The Alert Ready System will be conducting its second rounds of testing today on all platforms.

At 1:55 local time, on November 28th, the Alert Ready System will sound off on all televisions, radios, and cell phones to ensure all people are receiving the emergency notifications.

This is just a test. However, the Alert Ready System is being prepared to make sure that when there is an emergency all platforms are in working condition. 

Emergency notifications can include public safety warnings such as fires, hazardous substances, or terrorist threats. Severe weather alerts are included like tornadoes, flash floods, hurricanes, or earthquakes. Environmental alerts such as air quality, and civil warnings like AMBER alerts.
