Why is there an alarm to let people know there's an earthquake happening? Don't people realize when the ground under their feet starts moving, that's an earthquake?

"Dude, the ground under my feet's moving -- is that a tornado?"

"Nope"

"Hurricane?"

"Nope."

"Donald Trump's and Roger Waters's egos just collided and made a super-ego that's blowing up ids everywhere?!"

"Bingo."

Earthquake early warning system

The seismic warning system in place during the most recent magnitude-7.1 quake on Sept. 19, which had its epicenter about 75 miles from the country’s capital, successfully gave people crucial time to flee vulnerable buildings, and prepare for the worst. In video from Mexico City, early warning sirens blare for at least 20 seconds before the shaking begins.
