The UK Government is reminding people that the Emergency Alert system will be tested this Sunday at 3pm.
It means that compatible devices will vibrate and make a loud siren-like sound, even if it’s set on silent.
It will then read the alert aloud and include a link to the gov.uk website for more information.
The sound will last for a proximately 10 seconds.
The alert will be issued based off of current location and are typically issued in the event of a life threatening emergency such as storms or a wildfire.
