False alarms highlight weaknesses in national alert system

 

Future proves past?

 

Weather junkie John Grosso knew it was highly unlikely a monster wave was barreling toward the Connecticut coast. Still, when a tsunami warning appeared out of the blue on his phone Tuesday, he felt a twinge of fear. His co-workers, who got the same alert, asked whether they should evacuate.

 

It turned out to be a false alarm, a computer glitch. The damage? An erosion of trust.
