An emergency population warning is a method where by local, regional, or national authorities can contact members of the public to warn them of an impending emergency. These warnings may be necessary for a number of reasons, including:

  • Weather emergencies such as tornadoes, hurricanes, and ice storms.
  • Geological disasters such as earthquakes, landslides, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis.
  • Industrial disasters such as the release of toxic gas or contamination of river water.
  • Radiological disasters such as a nuclear plant disaster.
  • Medical emergencies such as an outbreak of a fast-moving infectious disease.
  • Warfare or acts of terrorism.

Many local areas use emergency population warnings to advise of prison escapes, abducted children, emergency telephone number outages, and other events.
