Also in Texas - I got this same alert and, (seemingly) like every else in the state I now have emergency alerts turned off. Which is bad.

The other example that comes to mind is, I was in Toronto a few years back and got a “Nuclear incident emergency alert” stating that there was NO problem at the nearby power plant and NO abnormal release of radiation. Equally uninformative, hugely more alarming (and relevant).
