[EAS] CMAS delay?

The CMAS AMBER Alerts are entered separately into the IPAWS system by 
the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The EAS CEAs are 
still being issued by the cognizant state or local authorities, (which 
may or may not be through IPAWS).  The lag may be due to the time it 
takes to get to NCMEC through their reporting system.

Glad to hear there was a happy ending.
