Emergency Alert System

The Emergency Alert System (EAS), is a system that was put in place in 1997 by the FCC. The system was very similar to the NOAA Weather Radio System. The EAS replaced the old Emergency Broadcast System (EBS). The system i vital to the safety US citizens. The system relays Tornado Warnings, Flash Flood Warnings, and any other National, State, and Local emergencies. The system uses S.A.M.E tones (the three loud beeps in the beginning of the alert). After the S.A.M.E tones, they play either a 980 Hz tone of 1050 Hz (NOAA Weather Radio) tone(s) or both. Following that, there is either a Human Voice or Robot Voice to relay the alert message. Finally, there are 3 EOM (End of Message) tones (Simaler to the first ones at the beginning, but shorter.

average Joe

Someone who is just like everyone else; a normal person.

'Average' means 'in the middle' or 'not extreme', and 'Joe' is a common male name. So 'average Joe' refers to a man who is not extremely different from everyone else.
