LINCOLN ALERTS
Emergency Notifications and Time-Sensitive Updates
You can stay informed about emergencies and important community alerts by signing up for Lincoln Alerts, an emergency notification system coordinated by the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office through Oregon’s OR-Alert system. These alert messages can be sent by Public Safety, City, Tribal, and County Officials. You can also subscribe to automated alerts like weather alerts, air quality advisories, flooding alerts, and more.
What to Expect
Lincoln Alerts sends time-sensitive messages on topics such as:
- Severe weather
- Distant tsunamis
- Evacuations of buildings or neighborhoods due to emergency events
- Available resources during and after a disaster
Flexible Notification Options
Subscribers can choose how they receive alerts. Notification options include phone calls, emails, text messages, and mobile app notifications. Alerts are sometimes sent only to affected areas. Be sure to include the address of your home, work, and school in your account to receive notifications for those areas. Regardless of your subscription, you can always view Lincoln Alert messages on the Member Portal.
Alerts are sent out in order of your preferred contact. Subscribers may receive multiple alerts depending on how quickly they confirm the notifications, or if their contact information is listed on multiple accounts.
Sign Up Today
It is recommended that each household member create their own account with personal contact information to receive alerts during an emergency. Emergencies and disasters can happen anytime and anywhere. Keeping yourself and your loved ones connected to emergency alerts is one step you can take to stay safer and better prepared.
