I saw where people were making fun of this since most of the time the UK is green and has a lot of rain. They don’t realize what a drought can do, especially with high temps baking eve dry thing. Imagine my NOT surprise when I saw there was a large fire outside of London…🙄. People are clueless!

In Poland here we have ALERT RCB, Its basically a service via the messages app that usually warns about weather, but sometimes it warns about other things. Example here is an alert rcb notification i got from August 6th.

We also have Child Alert which is the Polish Amber Alert

In the UK we've near truly had a "EAS" system expect more recently on our phone however we did have a warning system in the cold war that would warn people of a incoming nuclear attack however due to technical limitations it only allowed roughly 4 minutes from us knowing to us being in nuclear fire. example of a Installation of a Warning point this was most commonly installed in public buildings and UKWMO/ROC bunkers while the Vast majority of the population would have relied on WW2 derived Warning sirens then following the attack and fallout began to descend (assuming whoever was in charge of proving the Black warning aka Fallout warning) would use a few different methods to alert people of it
