You receive an emergency alert: "BALLISTIC MISSILE THREAT INBOUND. SEEK IMMEDIATE SHELTER. THIS IS NOT A DRILL." What do you do? How do you think your neighborhood will react? What memes be on Lemmy?

But replace "Hawaii" with your location.

You're viewing a single thread.
Sweden, costal village north of Stockholm.
If a missile is on it's way, I'd send a text to my near and dear with a quick "missile incomming, love you, if I don't make it, you can have X".
Then go to bed in my walk in closet.
I live alone in my flat, top floor, no proper shelter in my general area.
At least move a few floors down and stay in the hall if it's somewhat central to the building. No below ground floors?
The house is built into a hillside, but no real underground floor.
I'd move toward the hillside at least 😄
Are you sure there is no shelter available? It seems there will be at least one that is less than 30 minutes away by car: https://www.msb.se/en/advice-for-individuals/civil-defence-shelters-evacuation-and-warning-systems/good-to-know-about-civil-defence-shelters/ https://msbgis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/instant/nearby/index.html?appid=8bfc89e7c6064bc181c6a1a6bbac2fa3&sliderDistance=1
There is "space for around seven million people" and Sweden's population is about 10.6 million, and the availability of shelters seems to match the population distribution pretty closely. You could at least let your neighbors know that they can have your space in a shelter (since there might be about 3.6 million people who won't fit in shelters), or show up anyway in order to help carry away any materials that were being stored in a shelter in peacetime, or to help get food or water into a shelter.
The missile is incomming, remember?
