Will emergency information be posted here, and does this system replace all other emergency notification systems?

No. Emergency information will be sent to you based on personal contact information but will not be posted on this site. However, in many cases, it will be posted on the homepage of the County’s website and on the County’s social media pages. SCCMo AlertMe does not replace other emergency notification systems. Along with broadcast media, radio, weather radio, and outdoor warning sirens, it should be considered one of several methods for receiving emergency alerts, but should not be the only alert method. At this time, Emergency Management alerts do not include notifications about thunderstorm and tornado watches and warnings.
