The Automated Emergency Broadcast System (AEBS) is a radio station on a randomized frequency that will tell the player about the weather for the current day and the next day, as well as other useful information. The day is considered to start at 9 AM.
Every hour, on the hour, the radio station will announce:
- Forecasts of the minimum and maximum temperature, humidity, and wind strength for the current day and following day
- Forecasts of fog, rain, and snow for the current day and following day
- Extreme weather events 2-5 days out, such as thunderstorms, tropical storms, and blizzards
- An announcement if the helicopter metagame event will occur during the current day:
Air Activity detected
- Information about the power grid:
- Two days before power shutoff:
Knox Power Grid: Power fluctuations detected.
- One day before power shutoff:
Knox Power Grid: Systems failing. Network compromised.
- Day of power shutoff (and following days):
Knox Power Grid: Blackout.
- Two days before power shutoff:
- Occasional pieces of military chatter and codes as part of the in-game lore. These lines have no impact on gameplay.
Unlike other radio stations, the AEBS station never shuts off. Like other radio stations, during weather events reception may be poor, causing transmission to be garbled. This can make it difficult to determine when a weather event will conclude.
While the frequency of the AEBS station is randomized per playthrough, it is consistent throughout the run. If you find a radio with the AEBS station, you can save it as a preset or make a note of it and manually use it in other radio devices.
