EMERGENCY BROADCAST SYSTEM 🧠 STABLE GENIUS 🧠

I just received a "test" of the Emergency Broadcast System. Have never heard this on the radio station I listen to (wmal.com) in the mornings. Anyone else getting these "tests"? HOLD THE LINE!

Happens often here in Texas. Sometimes they are only in Spanish, kinda irritating.

I read atleast 6 frens who got the EBS this morning. All from different states. Perhaps just an annual test.

They do them once a month per station, I think

Except this did not come over the station, I listen to the radio online. It came over the internet.

If you're listening to a stream of a physical station, they likely have them

This is the first one I've heard in years. Except for when it's a real emergency like a tornado watch coming into the area. Hoping that the real announcement is coming soon, not related to weather...
