Don’t worry, god forbid, if a 6 richters or higher happens you’d be alerted by the earthquake itself, no alert can be faster than that!

well as per the MM IV scale definition, I experienced most of those (as did everyone else) and we still did not receive an alert. Maybe these should be modified...

This report obfuscates the fundamental problem: people in exactly the same place at the same time, all feeling the February earthquake, didn’t all receive the alert.

Okay but why did I get the alert 20 mins after it happened while my friends in the same city got it as it happened?

not exactly the same but I was in a crowded area when a pair of amber alerts went out, even if your phone doesn't go off if a bunch of people around you phones go off ask what's going on, out run the same direction they are...

inherent in the nature of the system that I get an earthquake warning 5 minutes after I feel the earthquake, cool cool cool
