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.

Fast response. Thanks

Great info. Delivery is fast and accurate.

Safety

I love this app…
As a Western employee,
It’s a great way to keep employees and students safe.
We need to know if there is any dangerous situations where we spend so much time.
