A nationwide Emergency Alert System test is scheduled for approximately 2:20 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday, November 17. FEMA says the exercise will check how broadcasters and other participating providers receive and pass along a national message.
Radio, television, cable and satellite services are among the participants. Depending on the provider, audiences may hear an announcement, see on-screen text, or both. The message will identify itself as a test and require no public action. Normal programming will resume afterward. Source.
