This site from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gives you e-mail and even cell phone alerts about emergency situations happening in your area. Select your state, county/parish and then decide what type alerts you would like, be it weather, homeland security, medical situations to list a few. Currently posted is information on Seasonal Influenza (flu), basics, prevention and treatment including the available vaccines. Even if you do not want the alerts, the site is useful to visit periodically in order to find what is happening in your area. An informed person can better deal with whatever emergencies might arise!
