AlertMartin is a free service provided by Martin County that allows Emergency Management, Fire Rescue, Utilities, Martin County Sheriff's Office and municipal partners to send important public safety messages and other timely warnings by phone, text or email.

Emergency notifications will be issued when there are imminent threats to life, health and safety for residents and visitors of Martin County. This can include, but is not limited to, severe weather events, evacuation orders, flooding, boil water notices, gas leaks and more.

Options to Sign Up

1. To receive area-specific alerts:

You must sign up online and provide your address, preferred contact method and choose the notification types you wish to receive. You are able to update, change or delete the information you provide at any time. The information you provide is protected and will not be used for any other purpose.

2. To receive county-wide weather alerts ONLY:

If you only want to receive county-wide weather alerts, you may also sign up online, or text the word ALERTMARTIN to 888777.

HOW IT WORKS

When we issue an alert or notification about a potential safety hazard, concern or other information, you will receive a message via the delivery method(s) you have selected.

Why should I confirm receipt of alerts?

When you subscribe to AlertMartin, you are given a choice of delivery formats, such as email, text message or phone call. You also have the choice of setting the priority order for those delivery formats. The system will attempt to reach you through all contact methods provided until a confirmation is received. By confirming that you have received a notification, you will eliminate the receipt of multiple messages.
