Get fire alerts
Get an email when official fire warnings change in your state. Double opt-in (you confirm by email), one-click unsubscribe. This republishes public information and is not an official warning service — always follow your fire agency and call 000 in an emergency.
You can also open any fire page and subscribe to that specific fire.
How fire alerts work
Choose a state and confirm your email address (a double opt-in step that stops anyone signing you up). From then on you'll get an email whenever official warnings change in that state, or for a specific fire you're watching. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing removes your address.
These alerts are a convenience based on republished public data. They are not the government's official Emergency Alert system and must not be relied on for life-safety decisions — always follow your fire agency and call 000 in an emergency.
Frequently asked questions
Is this the same as the official Emergency Alert?
No. This is a convenience notification based on republished public data. It is not the government’s official Emergency Alert system and must not be relied on for life-safety decisions. Always follow your fire agency and call 000 in an emergency.
How do the alerts work?
You confirm your email (double opt-in), then we notify you when warnings change in the state you chose, or for a specific fire you are watching. You can unsubscribe from any email with one click.
What do you do with my email address?
It is used only to send the alerts you asked for. You can unsubscribe at any time, which removes your address.
How quickly will I be alerted?
We check the official feeds every few minutes and send an email shortly after a warning changes for your chosen state. There can be a short delay, so never wait on an email to make a life-safety decision — follow official warnings directly.
Can I watch a single fire instead of a whole state?
Yes. Open any fire’s page and use “Get alerts for this fire” to be notified about that specific fire.
