The Tornado Warning Alert Device Subsidy Program
The City of Alamo Heights would like to remind its citizens about tornado safety and some important tips for success. Tornadoes can happen anytime and can bring an excess of 200 MPH winds, creating destruction in their wake. There are several ways to be notified of tornadic conditions in your area. Wireless emergency alerts are automatically generated to all compatible cell phones in the area that is threatened. If you receive AMBER alerts, you should receive the wireless emergency alerts, but please check to see if your device is compatible by referencing the following link:
You can also obtain emergency alert notifications from other devices that can alert you of tornadic conditions in your area. These devices include weather band radios as well as “tornado specific” alert devices. The following links may be helpful in selecting a severe weather/tornado alert device
