[@CentralOHSirens]

If I only heard the thing at 0:59 without any context that'd lowkey scare tf out of me

[@SouthernWXMedia]

That was crazy. And pretty dumb how the second one was completely cut off!

[@Autisticswiftie-eg]

Are those Kuromi plushies on your NOAA radios?

[@ILwarntech]

Yes

[@TheEASdude0825]

Why didnt they issue it as a CAE instead of a civil emergency message and a UNRECOGNIZED MESSAGE!!!

[@ILwarntech]
