quick PSA tomorrow October 4th everyone in the US's phone is going to ring really loudly at the same time 2 20 PM eastern time just so you know so the reason it's happening is because every three years the government is required to test their integrated public alert warning system we haven't needed it in a while but it's just in case there's some massive emergency that the entire country needs to know about at the same time like a media or something they got to keep that tested so at exactly 2 20 PM Eastern everyone's phone in the US that is on and that has cell service is going to start blaring and get a message and it will say this is a test of the national wireless emergency alert system no action is needed this is also going to play on TVs and radios that are on so there's a pretty good chance it's going to be pretty loud in the U.S tomorrow pretty briefly but just so you know it's just a test no need to panic you might not have an alarm set on your phone for 2 20 PM eastern time but your phone is going to ring anyway because
