False positive chimes

[Trevor B]

I'm seeing a fair amount of these alerts when there's absolutely nothing close ... what might be the issue?

I'm on 2020.4.1, if that helps.

Yesterday, for the first time ever, I had a warning chime that had no cause and would not shut off. I rebooted and everything was fine.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Strangely I had this issue long time ago late 2018 to early 2019 then never again until this week on 2020.4.1.

 

[Dr. J]

Clearly we're being warned of something....but what is it?

Thanks for the sanity check. I thought I was hearing things, or trying to blame the radio. Haven't seen any screen flashes, just the odd chime or two.

Anecdotally, I've been hearing more false positive chimes lately as well, for no perceivable reason (e.g., no snow, no rain). I'm on 2020.4.1 and I wonder if the sensors have been calibrated to be more sensitive.

If there are any chimes, I want a message, and one that stays on the screen long enough to read.
