Mobile emergency alerts could come to Canada at some point in the next few years.

  1. Ehh...it's good to be signed up if something does happen in your town, I suppose, but none of the ones I've gotten have been anywhere close to me.

  2. I have, it's a little uneven. Go for the ones your local municipality actually offers. The worse I had was one that would give me alerts for places in other states!

    I've been warned once or twice about really bad storms and/or flood possibilities, which were reasonably useful (b/c very rare where I am).

    If you have a good weather app, those will often give you good heads up but of course there are others weather unrelated.

    My understanding is some alerts can just be pushed through. Earthquake and tsunami alerts for example.
