Why were Floridians awakened with an early-morning emergency alert test?

[@jolus6678]

It’s a great way to get people to turn off all alerts on their phone

[@lovejetfuel4071]

We will have the same test in the UK, at 3 pm in a few days from now. They say it's for flood, fire and heavy wind alerts. But you know right well this has to do with Nuclear drills

[@SassaFrass28]

Absolutely

Literary stared at the ceiling for the next 2 minutes wondering what the hell just hapened.

[@Fk7.giabia]

Funny enough I already had my iPhone preset to turn off test alarms because of this exact reason. My Samsung however did not go off. Was so mad last night i wanted to switch to Samsung entirely 😂

[@tank4922]

I turned off all emergency alerts off the first thing this morning.

[@lcinflorida8728]

My mother's cat is named Poo! I've gotta turn off alerts too... Have a great day!! 😸
