decatur-county-changing-emergency-warning-system
Decatur County is moving to a new public notification system for messaging in the county.
Residents will have to register an address and phone online to receive messages from the new system.
The easiest way to get started is to text DECATURCO to 99411.
You will receive a link that will take you to the sign up page for CodeRed. Be sure and check your email used to register to finish the setup of your account.
Sign up takes a few minutes to complete. The messages will be for Decatur County only and the weather warnings will be directly from the National Weather Service. You will also be able to receive general and emergency messages from Decatur County.
You have the options to choose which messages you will receive.
If you have any questions please email ema@decaturcounty.in.gov.
The current system (Nixle) will stay active until March 2024. The new system is expected to be more efficient when receiving weather warnings from NWS.
