Be Prepared

Sign up for SMC Alert:

SMC Alert is a vital tool for emergency communication. Managed by the county, it provides immediate updates on events like earthquakes, fires, flood threats, or even street closures. By subscribing to SMC Alert via text or email, you'll be among the first to receive important notifications when these incidents occur.

Know your Genasys Protect evacuation zone:

Genasys Protect (formerly Zonehaven Aware) helps you identify your evacuation zone, particularly during wildfire emergencies. If an evacuation is necessary, the fire department will update Genasys Protect, which will notify everyone within the affected zones.

Follow SMC Fire and local social media accounts:

Often, the best, real-time emergency updates can be found from the fire department, county, and city’s social media accounts on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Prepare ahead of time:

Being prepared is key. Ensure that you and your family have a solid evacuation plan, and that your home is ready for any emergency. Pack a go-bag with essentials like water, food, and other necessities to stay safe and self-sufficient in case of evacuation.
