Murrieta emergency alerts include zones and a radio backup
Murrieta points residents first to Alert RivCo and Genasys Protect, with 1040 AM and the city Alert Center serving as additional information paths.
Murrieta’s current Alert and Warning page points residents first to Alert RivCo and Genasys Protect. Alert RivCo is the county emergency notification system. Genasys provides the address-based evacuation zone and another alert path. Register cell and internet-phone contacts; Riverside County says traditional landlines are entered automatically.
The city also designates 1040 AM for emergency broadcasts, including evacuation orders, safety instructions, and recovery information. Write the frequency down or save it in the car so it remains useful when internet service is unreliable.
Murrieta’s website Alert Center is an additional city page. It can display Emergency Alerts and Important Notices, and users can subscribe through Notify Me or RSS. It should not replace Alert RivCo or the Genasys zone map.
Know the zone, keep more than one warning path, and follow the latest official action. A warning is time to prepare or leave early if needed; an order means leave now.
