Set the alarm clock for 1:34 am

Online alarm clock for 1:34 am

You have just woken at 1:34 am to assemble the Coastguard team for a night search, so the first task is getting yourself upright and confirming who needs alerting. Set this alarm as a clear marker for that immediate start. With 2:00 am approaching, there is time to check the rendezvous point, pull on warm layers and gather the information the crew will need.

Because the alarm is meant to catch you while you are still waking, keep the browser active and stop the screen from going to sleep before it sounds. If the browser closes or the equipment sleeps first, the Coastguard team may miss its alarm and the night search could begin late. Leave the volume high enough to hear from where you are resting, then test that sound is coming from the intended speaker.

Before settling down, arrange a low light beside your clothes and search gear rather than relying on the main room light at 1:34 am. A dim, warm lamp lets you find boots, keys and notes without flooding the room with glare. Place its switch within reach, keep the route to the door clear, and have a torch ready for the dark trip outside.
