Cairns Alert uses text messages (SMS) and email to send out information about local disasters, severe weather and emergency events. This is a free, opt-in service so you will need to register to receive Cairns Alert warnings.
The alerts are official communication from the Local Disaster Management Group which manages the community response to disasters.
