Great resource

I am happy with this app as it gives me alerts and real time time accurate updates. Highly recommend this

Helpful

Received a few notices so far and all were helpful. I hope I never get the one letting us know the big one has hit our B.C. coast, but it’s comforting to know I’ll be informed straight away and manage to seek higher ground here on Bowen island Snug Cove. It just might save our lives.

Wonderful App!

This app gives me warnings about incoming thunderstorms and other extreme weather events, and often this happens without any other warnings. I greatly appreciate it. The warnings are timely and accurate.

Staying in the loop

It’s nice to be informed about what’s is going on and areas to stay away from. This app could save lives. I think it’s important.
