On Wednesday, March 29th at approximately 10:15am, the National
Weather Service, Alaska Division of Homeland Security and
Emergency Management, and the Alaska Broadcasters Association will
conduct a test of the Alaska tsunami warning system as a part of
tsunami preparedness week for the southern coastline of Alaska
along the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of Alaska. The test will be
broadcast on radio and television stations and the broadcast will
state that it is only a test. Some communities may activate their
sirens. NOAA all hazards weather radio listeners will hear a tone
alert followed by a test message. After the test, we invite you to
provide feedback at www.ready.alaska.gov.

Once again, a tsunami warning system test will be conducted on
