Just received this ‘Extremely Severe Alert’ on my phone with a loud siren, and honestly it scared the hell out of me. For a second I thought something serious was happening.

If this is just a test by the government, shouldn’t there be some kind of prior notice? Sudden loud alerts like this can cause panic, especially for elderly people or those with health issues.

I get the importance of emergency systems, but the execution could definitely be better.
