What Does ALERTFlagler Do?
ALERTFlagler lets you customize how and when you receive emergency notifications. Alerts can go to your text messages, email, mobile phone, home phone, or work phone, and you can choose which types of alerts you want, including detailed weather warnings.
You can also set a Quiet Time when non-critical alerts won't come through. Critical alerts, such as tornado warnings and evacuation notices, override Quiet Time so you never miss urgent information.
Which Alerts Should You Turn On?
Flagler County recommends every resident enable, at a minimum, these four weather alerts:
π Flash Flood Warning
Rapidly rising flood waters are expected.
βοΈ Severe Thunderstorm Warning
Destructive winds or hail are expected.
πͺοΈ Tornado Warning
A tornado has been detected or is developing.
π Extreme Wind Warning
The most dangerous part of a hurricane is about to hit the area.
How ALERTFlagler Delivers Notifications
ALERTFlagler runs on a secure emergency notification platform used by government agencies. When you register, your contact information and address are used to send alerts based on your preferences and location. That lets Flagler County Emergency Management reach residents quickly with severe weather warnings, evacuation notices, and other urgent updates. Counties and emergency agencies across Florida and the country use similar systems.
Why It Matters
Florida storms can develop fast. A direct alert to your phone gives you more time to prepare, take shelter, or make decisions that protect your home and family.
Unlike general weather apps, ALERTFlagler sends location-based alerts issued directly by local emergency management, one of the most reliable sources of urgent updates in Flagler County.

- Open the ALERTFlagler registration page and create an account.
- Confirm your address so alerts match your location.
- Add more than one contact method, such as text and email, in case one is down.
- Turn on the four recommended weather alerts above, plus any others you want.
