An emergency warning is an official alert issued to the public about an immediate, significant threat to life or property, requiring urgent protective action.
They are commonly delivered through broadcast media (TV, radio), mobile alert systems (WEA, SMS), sirens, and official government websites or apps.
Always follow the specific instructions provided, which may include sheltering in place, evacuating, or taking other protective measures relevant to the threat.
Warnings are issued for severe events like natural disasters (e.g., floods, wildfires, tornadoes), active shooter incidents, and hazardous material releases.
