Online alarm clock for 1:56 am
You have just woken after the storm, and the first job is to work out whether water has reached the yard, garage or lower rooms. An alarm set for 1:56 am gives you a clear moment to get up, find a torch and put on enclosed shoes before checking. By 2:00 am, you can be ready to look from a safe, sheltered position rather than stepping outside half-awake.
For a storm check, choose the alarm sound according to how easily you might drift off again. A softer tone can suit a quiet house when someone nearby is sleeping, while a persistent tone makes more sense if heavy rain or wind could mask the sound. Set the volume before resting and keep the browser active. The alarm cannot wake you for the storm inspection if the browser session ends or your phone goes to sleep, so use a separate backup if missing 1:56 am would leave possible flooding unnoticed.
Because this check falls deep in the night, keep anything you consume simple and quick. A few sips of water can be useful before moving around, especially if the air feels warm and humid after the storm. Leave coffee, an energy drink or a full meal until you know whether you are returning to bed; having them immediately may turn a brief inspection into a much longer wakeful stretch.
Common questions
Can I set more than one alarm at a time?
This page is built around a single alarm at a time. For multiple alarms, open a separate tab for each one and set a different time in each, keeping every tab open until it's rung.
Why use a browser alarm instead of my phone's built-in one?
Mainly for reliability against silent mode, do-not-disturb, or a phone left charging out of earshot. It's a useful backup or a desk-based alternative, though it depends on this tab staying open rather than running in the background of your phone.
Is there a cost to use this?
No, it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you set it. It just needs the tab left open until the time you've chosen arrives.
Will the alarm still ring if I close the browser tab?
No. The alarm only runs while this tab stays open — closing it, or closing the browser entirely, stops the countdown before it can ring. Keep the tab open in the background if you need it to go off later.
