FEMA and FCC Plan Nationwide Emergency Alert Test ...
If only there was a way to send a mass message to everyone to tell them this was planned..

It'd be really nice if the emergency alert system had pre-test
non-emergency
push notification functionality built into it.

That actually seems like a good potential addition. 72/48/24/12h beforehand everyone gets a regular text or notification, no priority, no noise, doesn't bypass quiet/sleep/focus modes, but there that says there is an upcoming test of the real deal.

I was actually kinda surprised all of the cell phone carriers didn't send out a text like "just FYI".
No link or anything, just to let anyone know that doesn't know.
