🚨 When seconds matter, how you receive information matters.

The City of Watertown has launched 𝘾𝙤𝙙𝙚𝙍𝙀𝘿, a location-based emergency alert system operated through the Watertown 911 Center.

In a tornado, evacuation, or other emergency, alerts can be sent directly to affected areas — by call, text, email, or TTY.

CodeRED uses phone numbers through the Codington County 911 database, but it does not include addresses, all phone numbers, and other preferred contact methods... Which is why residents of Codington County are encouraged to create a CodeRED account.
