        If it's actually 5 alarms go now. You don't want to wait. I know from history waiting is a bad idea in those hills

        Do you have an emergency radio? Most have am/fm capabilities as well as official channels.

        In the movies, the right time is before you start wondering if it's the right time, and too late is after you're sure it's the right time.

        Not to be flippant, I don't think I've seen "n-alarm" used outside chili context IRL. Wow.
