Emergency Alerts

Emergency alerts are urgent notifications sent to the public to provide critical information during emergencies or disasters. These alerts aim to inform individuals about imminent threats, such as severe weather events, natural disasters, public safety hazards, or other situations that may pose a risk to life, health, and property. They can be transmitted through various channels, including mobile devices, television, radio broadcasts, and digital signage, often utilizing specific systems like the Emergency Alert System (EAS) or Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA). The primary purpose of emergency alerts is to ensure the safety and preparedness of the community by delivering timely guidance and instructions on how to respond to a specific threat or situation.
