The alerts are designed to notify the public of life-threatening emergencies, but there are cases where the test could expose hidden mobile phones and put people at risk of domestic abuse or put others in danger.
Ensuring your phone is turned fully off before 3pm on Sunday will stop it from making a sound. But you can also disable the alerts via settings on your phone for a more permanent solution. Search for “emergency alerts” within settings to quickly find the options or follow the below.
iPhone
For an iPhone, open the Settings app and navigate to:

Toggle off “Allow alerts”.
Different versions of Android from different manufacturers may look slightly different but the menus will be roughly the same.

Some other types of 4G or 5G phones may also receive the alert. Disabling the mobile phone signal by enabling airplane mode or removing the Sim card should prevent the alert, but if in doubt turn the phone completely off or remove the battery "

Słysząc o kiepskiej pogodzie w Anglii, cieszę się, że zwinelam się na te parę dni gdzie indziej. Trzeci dzień bezchmurnego nieba. Jutro ma być podobnie. Muszę wymyślić co porobić.
Pogoda w tym roku w Anglii nie rozpieszcza.
....ale u mnie tez ladnie.
