Frequently Asked Questions
How is Lucas County Alerts different from the City of Toledo Alerts, Monclova Alerts, etc?
Lucas County Alerts sends out emergency alerts - snow emergency levels, tornado warnings, evacuation or shelter in place orders, etc.
Some communities within Lucas County have chosen to create their own alerts for community events, road closures, leaf or trash pick up, etc. Go to lucascountyalerts.com to see if your community has this option.
What do I do if I want to sign up for alerts and live outside of the county or don't see my city, township or village listed?
