Please note that the period between the Earthquake Early
Warning and the arrival of strong tremors is very short, i.e. a matter
of seconds (or between several seconds and a few tens of seconds). As a
result, areas that are close to the focus of the earthquake may not
receive the Earthquake Early Warning transmission before strong tremors
hit.
Please also note that there are limits to the accuracy of the
Earthquake Early Warning, such as the estimated seismic intensity. This
is because the system is necessarily dependent on very short-term data.
Please be aware of these features and limitations when responding to Earthquake Early Warnings.
