Watch Duty app, https://www.watchduty.org
Maps wildfires and their status in real-time. Notifications can be set by county.
Several SBNA members have found Watch Duty to be the best way to quickly find about wildfire in our area and to get notifications of nearby fires.
ShakeAlert
ShakeAlert® sends out a cell phone alert as soon as the beginning of an earthquake is detected in Oregon, Washington, or California. The alert could give you enough time to climb down from a ladder, turn off a chain saw, get under a table before the shaking arrives reaches you.
Outdoor Pile Burning
There were already several grass fires in the Eugene/Springfield area last month. Before you burn, think about wildfire and grass fire prevention, even at this time of year.
Lane County Alert Me
Register your cell phone to receive Lane County Emergency Alerts. You can set what you want to receive alerts about, e.g. evacuation orders, weather, etc.
