you'll be woken up by the sirens though. that is, if they work
if I get woken up to a siren I'm just fucking done man I'm overdosing on any pill I can find and die, I'm not dealing with the fallout
People in the Midwest that have the tornado sirens, I’m sure they can leverage those for this purpose. I don’t think there are any “nuclear war warning” sirens in my area.
In the UK, the only warning system we have is receiving a text message. And even that is a hit or miss because only half of the people I know actually received one when the govt was testing the system a couple years ago.
