Emergency Alert System to be Tested at 11 a.m. Wednesday

Yes, it's only a test.

FEMA is testing its national emergency alert system to see how effective (or ineffective) it is.  The test will be 3 minutes long and will be conducted at 11 a.m. Wednesday.

That means for you all who are home, be prepared to have your TV viewing interrupted. But remember, this is just a test.
