Emergency alerts have a distinct sound or vibration. The test may startle you but when we send a real alert, we want you to notice and follow the direction. A reminder that 911 is for emergencies only. #AlertReady

Les alertes d’urgence ont une tonalité ou une vibration unique. La mise à l’essai peut vous faire sursauter. Toutefois lorsque nous envoyons une véritable alerte nous voulons que vous la remarquiez & que vous suiviez les instructions. Le service 911 est réservé aux urgences

We are responding to a wildfire of roughly 5 hectares at Manganese Mines, Colchester Co. The fire is being held – not growing but not yet under control. We have 5 DNR firefighters plus local volunteer fire depts. One DNR helicopter dropped water. Next update around 5 pm.
