The Federal Communications Commission did not immediately reply to a request for comment.
The website for Hawaii Emergency Management Agency was also offline Saturday, possibly due to an influx of traffic.
According to Buzzfeed News reporter Amber Jamieson, a representative for the HEMA said the alert was pushed as part "of a drill that was going on." Even though the message clearly states, "THIS IS NOT A DRILL."

With tensions between the United States and North Korea at an all time high, the alert sent panic throughout the region and continental United States. President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un have both threatened each other with the possibility of nuclear attack in recent months, as North Korea continues to test its nuclear capabilities, despite condemnations from the rest of the world.
In November, Hawaii began retesting its Cold War-era siren due to a possible threat from North Korea. It's unclear if those sirens were tested in the false alarm on Saturday, but it appears as if the alarm was only issued using the wireless emergency alert (WEA) system, which was established in April 2012.
It was all too real for people in Hawaii. According to New York Timesmedia reporter Sydney Ember, people were sheltering in basements, some crying and holding each other.
Ember's and other tweets showed the pure panic that ensued after receiving the alert.
