AlertDC

I feel so out of the loop. I hadn’t even heard of AlertDC before seeing in a post over at Legally Heidi’s blog and I’ve been living (on/off) in DC since 2001. I wonder if this is a new thing.

Apparently I’ll receive weather and transportation advisories, info on government office closings, amber alerts, and other breaking news. You go also set locations that you are particularly interested in. I guess I’ll see how useful these alerts turn out to be. Makes me hope for a snow day (not that I wasn’t wishing for one before).

Now I’m curious to know if I’m missing out on other “fun” resources provided by the city. Heh.
