Warning of Flooding, Wildfires
or Terrorism


[A UK-wide emergency alert service

ahead of a test on Sunday 23 April.

The alerts will be sent directly to mobile phones across
the UK to warn people about life-threatening
events such as wildfires and severe flooding,
the government has said.]

Yes I have been worrying about wildfires this winter

Mystic Mock 19-03-2023 08:04 AM

Is something about to happen?

I don't mean to be scaremongering.

Cherie 19-03-2023 08:08 AM

Think its sensible to be able to alert the public to potential danger

No this plan
has been worked on for some time.


To me it a Good Alarm
with Big Text saying what is in your zone.


But for those very old,
and no smartphone
and there are some of those folks
Still around.
Get no alert

arista 19-03-2023 08:14 AM

until you acknowledge it.

I honestly was just nervous that we were about to have something bad happen.

And tbh after Covid I think we need a break from terrible **** happening to us.:laugh:

"Alert: Alien Invasion imminent."

Yes,
if that was happening

Text could be Added

"Lock all windows and doors
Turn off All Lights"

"Use a Radio with Headphones
or close to your ear"

Hopefully he never gets let out.

Blates a Nuclear Attack warning system but TBH if the bombs are dropping, you want to be as close to it as possible. Vapourised in a split second, you won't even see or hear it. Lights out.

Your other options are 3rd degree burns, radiation poisoning, cancer or starvation so ... better to go with the bomb.
