This just in! The Federal Emergency Management Agency, FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will be conducting a mandatory nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) on September 27th, 2017 at 2:20 pm (EDT).

The test will air on radio, television, cable and direct broadcast satellite systems all across the country and will last approximately one minute. This will be the third mandatory nationwide test of the EAS system. The first was in Nov. 2011, then again in September 2016, now September 27th, 2017.

FEMA is stating that the test is being conducted to assess the readiness for distribution of the national level test message system, as well as to verify its delivery. However, in light of what’s happening in North Korea and the increases in natural catastrophes (Harvey, Irma, Maria, and multiple earthquakes), could there be another reason why this test is being conducted? Does FEMA know something is coming that the average American citizen doesn’t?

All that and more in the report below…
