2:20 p.m. Eastern: A nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System and Wireless Emergency Alerts.
(per CNN)
EAS alert goes to radio and TV. (EAS was first tested in 2011. This is the 7th test of EAS.)
WEA alert goes to your cell phone. (This is the second-ever WEA test that goes to consumer cell phones.)
In 2004, I wrote an article on the reform of the public warning system. It was published in April 2005. So that's why I'm thinking about your phone ringing.
