    Sounds like there is an armed nut job on the loose in the area and the FBI are trying to find him.

        WEA messages are sent by public safety officials to warn the public about dangerous situations in
        other critical emergencies. The national test will use the same special tone and vibration as with all WEA messages (e.g. tornado warnings and AMBER Alerts).
        They are testing existing systems on a national rather than regional level. It notrmally gets used for issuing local tornado warnings, flood warnings or other public saftey issues.

              The tin foil hats are saying that the Chinese have infiltrated them with spy tech hence why they're shutting them down.

              Here's some drone footage of one that has recently been shut down

                    ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- A federal search warrant released Wednesday revealed a solar observatory located the mountains of New Mexico that mysteriously closed for 11 days had been shut down as part of an FBI investigation of a janitor suspected of using the facility's wireless internet service to send and receive child pornography.
                    Search warrant debunks theories about New Mexico solar observatory's closure - CBS News

                    A federal search warrant revealed that in July, agents began searching a child protection database and found child pornography linked to an IP address at the Sunspot observatory, KRQE reports.

                    According to KRQE, federal agents began speaking to the chief observer at Sunspot, who said he found a laptop running in several empty offices over the last few months. He told the feds what he found on the desktop was "not good," and that it appeared to be child porn.

                    The search warrant states the feds then monitored all the IP addresses and found the exact time child porn was being sent out, which then matched only the janitor.

                    According to KRQE, the observatory director said that once the janitor realized his computer was no longer there, he started "feverishly started looking through the facility." The director said the janitor also started making comments about "lax security at the facility," said it was "only a matter of time before the facility got hit, and he "believed there was a serial killer in the area" and that killer might enter the facility and execute someone.

                    The director said that's when he became concerned for his personal safety, and along with the agencies that operate the facility decided to evaluate it and shut it down.
