[StBernard] Parish readiness

[Westley Annis]

Okay, thanks!  Have a weather radio, etc., but if the parish is gonna send
out updates thru this I suppose it's worth it to have.

	Jim,
	
	Yep, that's how it works. Enter your cell phone number, wireless
carrier,
	and email address and they will start sending the updates you
selected to
	you.

	from an article on nola.com:
	
	
	He said the parish is working on a network of sirens that will use
tones and
	voice messages to alert residents about hurricanes and other
dangerous
	situations. Bids for the equipment arrived this week, and officials
hope to
	have the system in place before the hurricane season ends,
Councilman Joey
	DiFatta said. 
	Dysart said residents can receive the same automated emergency
alerts that
	parish officials receive by registering their phone numbers at the

	Craig (or Westley):
	
	How does this work. We put in our cell # and provider and types of
alerts
	we wish to have?
