Strathcona County Alerts will be used in the event of an emergent, significant or time-sensitive emergency. Alerts can be received via text, phone call or email. These alerts are specific to Strathcona County only. Sign up to receive alerts today!
Alberta Emergency Alert will be used to notify people when they may be in danger (for example, during a severe weather warning). On the radio you will hear a tone and then an automated voice giving information. On television, you will hear a tone while a message scrolls across the bottom of the screen. Always follow emergency instructions. This system will be used on local stations to communicate local emergency messages.
In some cases, emergency personnel may go door-to-door. Please follow any instructions they provide.
If you or someone you know may have difficulty receiving, understanding or acting on emergency information, develop a personal support network that can help make sure the emergency message is received and understood by that person.
If you are told to evacuate, take your pets if you can. A reception centre may not be able to take your pet; have a plan in place about where you can leave your pet in an emergency.
