As we prepare for the significant winter storm to impact Central and Northern Arizona later this week you are encouraged to sign up for the local Emergency Notification System within your corresponding county. The purpose of the alerting system is to notify local residents and business owners via recorded phone messages, texts or emails of an emergency or disaster in the area. Information about necessary actions, such as evacuations can also be provided through the alerting system.
Although the Emergency Notification System is intended to alert individuals who live in, work or attend school in Navajo or Apache County, anyone can sign up and receive the alerts.
To register for the alerting system in Navajo County type in Ready Navajo County on your web browser search bar, click on Ready Navajo County Registration and once inside the page click the large green type that says Ready Navajo County which is located approximately mid-page. You can also visit http://www.navajocountyaz.gov/Departments/Emergency-Management-and-Preparedness/Ready-Navajo-County-Notification-System/Ready-Navajo-County-Registration.
