Frequently Asked Questions
Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEAs) are free notifications delivered to your mobile device as a part of a public safety system provided by Authorized Senders. The alerts are designed to inform you of imminent threats to safety or missing persons alerts in your area (e.g. AMBER Alerts).

Enhanced geographic targeting of Wireless Emergency Alerts transmits Alert Messages in a geographically precise manner, with the intent that Alerts reach communities impacted by an emergency without disturbing others. Alert Messages are sent to areas that best approximate the zone of emergency. WEA-capable mobile devices in the Alert zone can receive the Alert, even if they are roaming or visiting from another area.
