    But what if a tornado actually appears at that time?

      The image says what happens. It can’t hurt you, it’s against the rules.

      They cancel it if the weather isn’t good, just in case they need it for real.

      They’ll likely run a different signal than the normal test. If, for example, they normally test in “alert” (steady) then they might use the “attack” (wavering up and down) signal instead.

      It runs for maybe a minute at 1pm. If it goes off before or after, it’s not a test.

      Like in 2017 in Mexico when the earthquake happened like two hours after their yearly earthquake drill. People figured it out pretty quickly, but I’ve never been in a tornado so I don’t know if it’d be as easy to tell as an earthquake.

        What if it’s just a very thorough drill?
