It's very fortunate that nobody was seriously injured after that total failure of the process.

The people who run this stuff need to understand that a false alert can be very dangerous.

"One video on social media showed an adult
putting children into a storm drain; other
social media images showed residents
huddling in bathtubs."


Or like me and this guy, just stay out in
the ocean and watch it all happen...

"We didn't know what to do except paddle
[our surfboards] in and do as best we
could. We debated whether we should just
stay out"
