False Tsunami Alarm on Long Beach Island, New Jersey

We are having a show this Thursday at 8PM US/Eastern. No false alarm there.

Meanwhile, along the Jersey Shore, a story of a test warning that went a bit farther than needed. 


"Two New Jersey Police Departments Issue False Tsunami Warnings"

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – Two New Jersey police departments startled residents with a false tsunami warning. Harvey Cedars Police Department tweeted on Monday afternoon that a tsunami warning would be in effect until 2:06 p.m. -- More at CBS Philly (Channel 3)


Longtime listeners to BSR may remember similarities to the story of the Emergency Broadcast System scare of 1971.

See you Thursday!
