Alaska's EAS Test Cancelled Due to Storm in Western Alaska

According to David Lee, with the Alaska Division of Homeland Security & Emergency Management, officials have cancelled the November 9 EAS test Alaska due to the big storm bearing down on Western Alaska tonight.

Because Alaska is such a small "big" state we probably all know someone who is going to be affected by the storm. Right now I am thinking about the little town of Gambell whose newly elected Mayor is here in Fairbanks, cut off from her town and anxious, but hopeful that between the emergency preparedness meeting held before she left for Fairbanks and the leadership of the vice Mayor, all will be well.
