Twitter and Twitterrific are the ones I use. Twitter just for the notifications
and use Twitterrific as my main Twitter app.
Another service/app I forgot to mention is PulsePoint

And to anyone / everyone that is on the USA West coast and western states, I

especially. I live in Portland Oregon
I think someone suggested to try Newsline.
I took that suggestion and I didn't find any alerts. I know in the
past I remember seeing alerts, but today I didn't find any, but that

Because this is the world we now live in, for those who are in San Bernardino
County her in Southern California, this site where you can register to receive
emergency alerts via phone, text or email may also be useful
Thanks Teresa for the kind words.
You may, or may not, have heard that I get to retire in a week, so the

Thanks everyone! I so appreciate all the helpful info.
I ended up calling AIRA and getting them to help me get signed up on
the public alerts website.
There was also a spot to register as a blind person. I have resisted

Hi Teresa,
Sorry to hear you guys are having it rough,
Take care.
As for apps
Is there no kind of civil emergency app for your state or city that might help?

Well, KXL's site is useless.
As is the Red Cross site, everything seems to be graphics.
Try calling 211, that is a statewide information number so they may have up to
date info.
Also, I'd call the Red Cross and ask them about accessible information for

I have my doubts there are any
Hi teresa! This is David Moore from Dice world! I am so happy to see you on
here! I don't use emergency apps per se, I just listen to radio stations in
my area of Columbus ohio. I do have a weather app called AccuWeather. There

You can also ask Siri for the Air Quality in your city and if there are

natural disasters or other severe weather events including wild fires?
