Did You Know?
Emergency alerts are geographically based. Public Safety officials working the emergency event will determine the area that is under imminent threat and request that an emergency alert be sent to that specific area. Emergency alerts are not sent countywide! To learn more about how you can receive all emergency alerts sent in Larimer County, follow the link Below.
