Our TV has turned into neon red and white color with the message of an emergency alert notice yesterday afternoon. Hold on! It was just a TEST.
TEST. TEST. TEST.
It was there on the screen of our TV for few minutes until it went off when I'm about to shoot photo of such alert message. It should be on cellphones and other emergency gadget but some cellphones were not reach of the message of this emergency preparedness.
IT WAS A TRIAL TEST in B.C.
That's a preparation in case of calamities such as earthquake, wildfire, flash floods, tsunami, snowstorm, hurricanes and tornado. There is no known tornado that happened in British Columbia. Tornados or twisters are frequently been calamities in Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan, or an occurrence in flat lands where wheat fields are visible.
Why the use of neon RED on the screen? Probably because it's a RED ALERT as it define as the level of intensity and alertness in times of emergency.
Anyway, our visions are not impaired to read the message. I don't know if the color-blinds able to read the message. However, "after reading the message" my vision was feeling kind of impaired. Yeah, I think whoever had that message flashed on the television screen wants the PUBLIC ATTENTION for RED ALERT and testing everyone if they can read and what could be the implication of reading white prints on red screen. More messages like that could end all of us BLIND or visually impaired. Thank you.
