I remember one year I heard that weather radios save lives, so I bought them for the whole family one Christmas. They might save more lives if they weren't loud pains in the ass that eventually get turned off.

Be sure to wear ear-pods on your iPhone, so you get the alert message at 100% full volume into your ears.. This will help you to gain an additional super-power called: Tinnitus.

Step one: Own a smartphone.

You’re done.

You actually have to opt-OUT of these alerts on almost any modern smartphone made in the past 5-6 years.

Government issued alerts are something I went out of my way to remove. I’ll happily live precariously like humans managed to do for the entire rest of our history before cell phones.

I ain’t a fan of the corporate tracking device but how people acted before a technology existed says little to how best to act now. Even if it did the past is littered with the corpses of those unaware of incoming danger from natural disasters.

Is this US only?

Actually handy. My city doesn’t have disaster sirens, but they do have emergency text alerts I didn’t know about.
