The Broward Sheriff's Office would like to remind you that tomorrow, Nov. 9th, FEMA and the FCC will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System beginning at 2PM, lasting for approximately 30 seconds.

The audio message will be heard on both radio and television indicating "This is a test."

This nationwide test will help federal agencies determine the reliability of the EAS system and its effectiveness in notifying the public in the event of an emergency.
