Anyway to fix a stuck Emergency Notification?

[AustinLi]

I have an LG G6 and recently the remnants of Hurricane Florence hit MA and I got a notification for severe weather. Its been a few days already and the warning has since expired BUT the notification is still stuck in the notification bar.

I have tried a few ways of getting rid of this. 1. I disabled Emergency Notifications. 2. Disabled icon. 3. Updated Android version(Currently running Oreo) just in case that reset it somehow. So far none of these methods have worked. The notification is still stuck at the top.

In order to get rid of them, I think you have to read the notification in the emergency app in order to get rid of it but the notification is not in the app so I can't click to read it and get rid of it.

Anyone know what I can do to get rid of it?

Thanks for any and all help!

Tap on the notification and it should open the app - it's probably your texting app.

I had searched for the answer for a long time. Sometimes the notification just went away so I gave up. It happened recently again and I was going crazy (I hate when there's stuff in the top bar)
Then I figured it out .
Go to settings, apps. Then show all system settings. Scroll down til you find emergency alerts. Then click on the app and open. Then the notification disappeared finally! Unfortunately I cannot turn it off but this will do for now.
