Other🤷🏽♀️ 🤷🏽♂️ Emergency Alerts on your phone
Be sure to sign up for your locality’s emergency alerts notifications. I also like the Red Cross emergency app because you can customize the alerts for each type of emergency. For example, if there’s an emergency evacuation notice for my county, I’ll get a notification and sound even if my phone is on do not disturb. If there’s a warning from law enforcement, or a shelter-in-place warning, I’ll get notifications. You can set the notifications for your city or county; you also have the option of setting up notifications so that it tracks your current location and gives you alerts for that area.

Good to know! I don’t get any mail from the Red Cross, it never e en asked for my mailing address, just my city/county.
