A nationwide test of the emergency and wireless alert systems will be conducted Wednesday at 2:20 p.m. ET, when a message will be sent to all cellphones, TVs and radios.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency said in a news release in August that a message that reads, “THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed,” will be sent to all phones. A Spanish version of the message will be displayed depending on the language settings of the devices.
A separate message will be sent to radios and televisions, saying, “This is a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System, issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, covering the United States from 14:20 to 14:50 hours ET. This is only a test. No action is required by the public.”
The test is a joint operation between FEMA and the Federal Communications Commission, meant to “ensure that the systems continue to be effective means of warning the public about emergencies, particularly those on the national level,” according to the August news release.
This totally sounds like the start of a horror SCP anomaly.
Edit: except the horror is the actual nature of our current reality we are currently experiencing, so nm
Nah, its just in case we get nuked next week.
Never understood why we needed to be warned of that since there’s fuck all we could do about it.
So you got time to grab a beer, a chair, and your New Vegas playlists.
Just in case you happen to already be within a quarter mile of a nuclear shelter.
They aren’t advertised very well, but I have seen entrances to one in downtown Pittsburgh.
You think you would even survive in a shelter if you lived in a city the size of Pittsburgh? That would be a direct hit.
Oh yeah that thought never left my mind as well. Best case scenario you end up in a tomb with 9,000 others.
So you can watch all the pretty lights and accept Atom into your heart. And be one in Division
I think less of anyone who brings up SCP.
Right? How dare people enjoy stuff. Bunch o’ schmucks.
I hope you feel the same way about people who enjoy prank videos.
I fail to see how they relate…? Prank videos often show what some might consider harassment of strangers. SCPs are essentially a collection of creative writing prompts. I legitimately cannot fathom how the existence of the SCP website would bother someone unless they just have an issue with fiction writing for some strange reason…?
Haven’t you heard? A bunch of nerds writing on the internet is exactly the same as harassment in real life.
Watch out nerd! You are doing it right now!
That’s fine man.
You don’t have to understand everything.
Nothin’ to understand here but someone hating on literacy, apparently.

No one cares what you think, loser.
No, you just don’t like what I think.
If you didn’t care you’d block me and move on. Lol.
Yeah. Go read more SCP. That’s what winners do.
