Choose the alerts that fit the household

Patrick County’s official Everbridge page says residents can select community alerts and individual weather alerts. It also describes optional quiet hours and asks users to review their information before completing the process.

The county distinguishes an advisory, watch and warning. Those labels describe different levels of expected or occurring conditions; they should not be treated as interchangeable.

Keep contact information current

Use contact methods that can be checked during an emergency and review saved details after a phone number or address changes. Share only the personal or special-needs information necessary for the requested service.

The county publishes 276-694-4940 for signup help. Registration does not guarantee that every alert will reach every device, and an alert service does not replace 911 for an immediate emergency.
