[quote:Anonymous Coward 1382145:MV8yNjc5MDAwXzQ3MDIwMTM4X0UyNDNCRkY3] [quote:Anonymous Coward 63492018:MV8yNjc5MDAwXzQ3MDE5ODM1X0E5OEJDRDlG] I am in central MN and saw nothing. That being said, we always have the siren test at 1 pm on the first Wednesday of every month. Since we've lived here, the siren has gone off (sounds like when the siren tapers off and kind of hangs in the air and doesn't restart... Lasts about 3-5 seconds) at 1 pm when it is NOT the first Wednesday of the month. It happened yesterday. Thus also has happened a few times when we lived in southern MN but it has happened several tines here. What the hell is going on? Thus needs to be addressed by a news conference. Something is just not right folks. Think about all the protocol they must have to go through in the presence of other people in order to have that alert (not a test mind you) have happen. Why did some in certain areas see this and others did not? Remember how Air Force one buzzed the people in NYC and scared the shit out of them? And there was no apology issued and no statement. This is how we will know Martial law is on our doorstep. It will look like that. [/quote] Do you live near Red Wing or Montecello? The sirens in those areas are controlled by Xcel energy, and are tied into the nuke plants. [/quote]
Original Message
Watching tv in Atlanta.
All of a sudden, the emergency alert message came up on the tv saying your channel is about to be forced tuned to a local news station. Then it said " you will receive an emergency action message from the White House".
Channel then changed automatically to a local station and then said " stay tuned for an emergeny alert message".
We have AT&T service and have the option to record any stations, but cannot record what is supposedly about to come on the station. We cannot even change the channel. FUCKING WEIRD!!!
Nothing has happened yet. We are still waiting to see what alert is coming.
Anybody else seeing this?
