Just received an emergency alert via the national system about Storm Darragh. I think this is the first non-test alert of this system?

  1. Googled my own question. 😅 Nope, this is the third use after Plymouth and Cumbria alerts earlier this year. Still, good to see it being used.

  2. Thought a nuke was being dropped on us! Scared the hell out of me

  4. Honestly. A text would’ve sufficed without the Fallout 4 alarm as well. I thought Putin had finally had enough of Splott.

  5. Where are you based? Not to doc or anything hut haven’t had this in the Vale.

  7. Finally got the palpitations under control! What a noise.

  9. Absolutely ridiculous, surely the national emergency alarm should only be used when the nation is in an emergency! When the world is on the edge of WW3 and you set of the nuke alarm to warn me that my shed might blow over.
