PRESS RELEASE. From the City of Half Moon Bay eNews August 3rd, 2023. Subscribe!

The San Mateo County alert and warning system is undergoing a major upgrade. 

The URL for SMC Alert will remain SMCAlert.info but our software will be changing from Everbridge to RAVE mobile alerting.

If you are already enrolled in SMC Alert your information has been transferred to the new system, you will continue to receive alerts as you have in the past.

We encourage you to create a new account on the new SMC Alert so that you can access new innovative features and make any changes to your account.  Creating a new account will not cause you to receive doubled up messages.

Messages from the new SMC Alert text messages may come from any of the following short code mobile phone numbers: 226787, 67283, 78015, 81837, or 77295.  E-mail notifications will come from either [email protected] or [email protected].

AlertTheBay.org directs the public to local emergency alerting systems throughout the 12 Bay Area counties and major cities, including Oakland, San Francisco, and San Jose. These systems are intended to quickly alert and inform Bay Area residents about local emergencies. Funded by the Bay Area Urban Areas Security Initiative (UASI), AlertTheBay.org is a convenient way to access registration pages for multiple emergency alert systems.

From localized events, such as road closures and power outages to widespread events, such as poor air quality due to wildfires, AlertTheBay.org can connect you to the specific alerts you care about. The alerts you sign up for will help you to stay informed, so you can act and prepare for safety quickly. AlertTheBay.org itself does not relay alerts.

For more information, visit the AlertTheBay.org FAQ page.
