This wasn't done because of a failed test. Only after over 100 people drowned in their homes in July 2021 because every single layer of the government failed to warn people about flooding they decided to do something.

- foepys 4y agoThis is not correct. A major of a town activated the town's sirens but because the only state-wide protocol in place was for citizens to return home or stay inside and turn on radio or TV, this was counterproductive. Plus, public radio and TV only started reporting after dozens of people were already dead. It was a complete failure on all fronts where the federal and state governments then tried to blame part-time mayors afterwards for not being experts in catastrophe management.
