Four times a year, on the first non-holiday Monday in March, June, September and December at 15.00, it is checked that the signal Important message via the outdoor warning system "Hesa Fredrik" works.
On Monday, March 7, the test will be carried out as planned at 15.00.
Given the world situation, MSB wants to emphasize that this is a test.
The signal sounds continuously for seven seconds, then follows fourteen seconds of silence. The signal test lasts for at least two minutes.
If you hear the signal at a different time than when it is being tested, or receive a VMA (Important Message to the Public) on your mobile phone:
- Go indoors and close all doors, windows and if possible ventilation.
- Listen to Swedish Radio P4 to hear what's happening.
