Sooo I get it, they are preparing for evacuation. But the timing is Horrible! A day after the nationwide EAS test, and now evacuation drills. Something is amuck. Just my 2 cents. Keep your third eye open.

Anyone involved in this evacuation test down in DC? Let's get all the particulars.

This smells like tuna to me.

Thanks for the update. I wonder why so many tests lately? I suppose its better to be prepared and not need it than to need preparation and not know what to do..

This smells like walking into the bathroom on a sunday morning after my dad has been on the beer for 3 days

Interesting. I doubt there is anything major to this. Appears there has been added stress onto emergency preperation as of late. There have been some recent incidents that have exposed the governments inability to respond to emergencies.

At least I think this is the most likely senerio. It doesnt mean we shouldnt remain extremely vigilant however.
