National Weather Service Wireless Emergency Alert System

     The wireless industry, The FCC, and FEMA have rolled-out the WEA's (Wireless Emergency Alerts) system nationwide.

    The NWS will start utilizing this by pushing extreme weather warnings over the system beginning 18 June 2012.

What types of alerts will I receive?  

1.  Extreme weather, and other threatening emergencies in your area

2.  AMBER Alerts

3.  Presidential Alerts during a national emergency

    High-end warnings will go direct to wireless users in an affected county automatically if their device is compatible (check link below, left side of page for your carrier)

http://www.ctia.org/consumer_info/safety/index.cfm/AID/12082

      Mobile users will not be charged for receiving these text-like alerts and are automatically enrolled to receive them.

     While these alerts will appear on a person’s mobile device similar to a text message, Wireless Emergency Alerts are not text messages.

     Instead, Wireless Emergency Alerts use a different kind of technology to ensure they are delivered immediately and are not subjected to potential congestion (or delays) on wireless networks.

Wireless Emergency Alerts and updates will provide the following information:

1.  Alert Category

2.  Event Type

3.  Response

4.  Severity

5.  Urgency

6.  Certainty
