In the past several weeks, those of us who signed up for area alerts, had to go and re-enroll. To keep current on all travel and neighborhood issues, be sure you sign up:
This is an important message from the District of Columbia
AlertDC system.
Dear AlertDC Subscriber:
As of August 25, 2014, the District of Columbia emergency alerting
notification system, AlertDC, has transitioned to a new software platform.
The new system is customizable, and allows you to pick and choose what kind
of alert notifications you want to receive and how you would like to
receive them. Attached you will find the press release issued announcing
the launch of the revamped emergency alert and warning system.
Should you have any questions or if you received this invitation in error,
please reply to alert.help@dc.gov.
Regards,

ear Alert Montgomery subscriber
Important changes are coming to the Alert Montgomery
system in the next few weeks. The new enhancements to our alert system will
improve the speed, reliability and customization of alerts you can receive.
What this means to you is that you will need to re-register your Alert
Montgomery County account in order to take advantage of the enhancements on the
new system.
We are scheduled to launch the new service on October 15,
2014. On that date you will receive an email from the new Alert Montgomery
vendor, Everbridge, with a trusted and secure link prompting you to take the
following actions:
1) Create a username and password;
2) Review current user information and update if
necessary;
3) Customize the methods in which you wish to receive
notifications (choose your devices and prioritization of selected devices);
and
4) Choose the types of alerts you would like to
receive.
For account holders who signed up prior to October 2014,
we will transfer your account data to the enhanced version of Alert Montgomery;
however, you must log on to create a username and password as well as double
check your contact information and alert categories.
