Gympie Regional Council residents can now opt in to receive disaster alerts straight from council, including weather alerts or river height information.
The link to opt in is on the GRC’s Disaster Dashboard web page.
Weather warnings will come via email but during times of disaster will also come via SMS.
This opt-in system does not replace the State Government’s statewide Emergency Alert (EA) system.
EAs are issued when there is a direct and likely threat to a community; a potential for loss of life and the community needs to take action eg. relocate to a safer area.
