Abstract
How might the events of The Day After Tomorrow be portrayed through the EAS?
Analysis
The scenario takes place in the same setting and time period as the film. As the movie was released in 2004, weather alerts were modeled after products of that time period. The film also predates recent changes to national EAS messages as noted in the EAS handbook. The extreme weather events seen in the movie allowed for some unique event codes to be used (i.e. Flash Freeze Waring). The scale of the disaster was also conducive for a national EAS message to be utilized. This scenario script was developed entirely in 2023.
Production
The visuals were created on Microsoft PowerPoint with some custom fonts and were recorded on OBS. The EAS headers and other audio were obtained/created from EASyKit: a resource for EAS scenarios. The TTS voices were sourced from an online demo. All audio elements were mixed on Audacity, and the final scenario was edited and rendered using iMovie. Total production time was roughly a month, coinciding with several other projects.
Other
My first movie-based EAS scenario. Having seen the film at one point, although scientifically debunked, the disaster seemed quite ideal for an EAS scenario. While excessive in some aspects, many of the weather phenomena depicted can be translated into EAS alerts. This scenario is on the shorter side, and there are many other parts of the country to explore in relation to the movie's plot. Regardless, I'm happy with how this perspective connects with the events of the film.
Disclaimer
This presentation contains EAS alerts with authentic audio. Therefore, the alerts can be used to trigger real EAS equipment. Unauthorized usage of EAS tones on live radio/TV stations is an FCC violation which can result in fines/prison. I will not assume liability for misuse.

This is pretty good. I remember as a kid when The Day After Tomorrow was coming to theaters. Every kid in school talked about it (those kids are adults now).

[@nodawnnoday34]

Happy 2024 everyone!

[@tylercaroppoli3324]

Amazing scenario very sad that it’s your last one but I wish you good luck with your next adventure in 2024 also happy new year 🎊🎈🎆❤️❤️❤️

[@ThestuffthatSaralikes]

Happy new year!! What a great way to start a new year and a great way to end the EAS scenarios… Thanks for all your hard work!!!

[@ROBLOXGamingDavid]

befitting as it is approaching its 20th year since The Day After Tomorrow was released.

[@Sir_Uncle_Ned]

What a scenario to start the year on! Amazing work!

It is about time somebody made a complete EAS scenario regarding The Day After Tomorrow. One I watched only covered the tornado outbreak that ravaged Los Angeles. Also, at 4:26 County listings for affected counties by an alert are given in alphabetical order, and I think states are also listed in alphabetical order. Here, the correct listing of affected counties would be as follows for New York: Bergen, Bronx, Essex, Fairfield, Hudson, Kings, Nassau, New York, Orange, Passaic, Putnam, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk, Union, and Westchester.

I remember watching this movie as a kid! This and Twister (1996) were my favorite movies growing up, which probably helped my love for weather. Also, 2024 has so been the year of Mother Nature telling us to stop our wasteful ways... I am sorry for the losses in the 7.6M earthquake New Year's Day in Japan and the tornadoes and fires on January 9th, 2024.

There’s a sequel to twister 1996 twisters

Hello DP... I was a big fan of your content back in the day, and it was part of the reason why I got into the community, alongside the other big scenario builders. (Though thanks to IRL circumstances, my own scenario's been stuck in limbo for a while.) While your EAS content will definitely be missed, I'm glad you chose the option you did, and *didn't* just delete everything entirely, as others have done previously. Best of luck with your new content. I remember watching a previous video maker (although I can't remember their username, it was many years ago...) that centered their content around fire alarm stuff - I might very well stick around for it as well. ~ Kurzov

"Most of the heat came from teapot". You can prove that it came from teapot, but you can't prove flat plane of earth heating.
