The Clark County Emergency Management Agency strongly recommends the utilization of an emergency alert radio that is capable of receiving information from the “All Hazard Radio Network”. The emergency alert radio is capable of providing important weather related information such as tornado watches or warnings. In addition to urgent weather related information the all hazard radio is capable of relaying information such as “AMBER ALERTS” and chemical spills/releases in your area.
