Weld County Emergency Notification System
To register or update your information, please go to the CodeRED Website.
CodeRED™ Emergency Alert System
CodeRED™ has been used by Weld County since 2014 to allow public safety officials to alert residents and businesses about emergency situations. CodeRED notifies you when an emergency threatens your location, and allows you to enter multiple locations, such as a home address and a work address.
You should register even if you have a landline or VOIP phone that might be automatically included.
Go to weld911alert.com to sign up. You have the option to enroll as a guest, but we encourage you to create an account so you can log back in and update your information if it changes. You can use your Google, Facebook or Twitter credentials to create an account for a quick log-in process.
If you have a cell phone and use text messages, be sure to opt in for SMS alerts, which can often reach you where a voice call cannot.
If you don’t have access to a computer to sign up, please call the Carbon Valley Emergency Management Agency at (720) 526-6594. We would be happy to assist you over the phone.
We will always do our best to alert you to imminent danger, but we want you to be empowered to take action whenever you feel a situation is threatening your safety. Trust your instincts! Sign up for CodeRED emergency alerts at weld911alert.com to receive emergency and weather warning notifications.

Did you know? CodeRED messages from Weld County public safety agencies will come from the following numbers:
866-419-5000 Emergency Alert for Emergency Notifications
855-969-4636 Community Alert for General Notifications
800-566-9780 Weather Alert for CodeRED Weather Warning Alerts (weather alerts are only sent for Warnings)
If you’ve already signed up for CodeRed emergency alerts, save these numbers in your phone so you will recognize them when we call! If you still need to sign up, go to weld911alert.com. If you ever miss a call from one of these numbers, you can hear the last message delivered to your phone simply by dialing the number back.
Register Your Information Online
Although many landline telephones are automatically registered with the emergency notification database, you are encouraged to go online and register your own personal information. By doing so, you will be ensuring that the data pertaining to you and your home is as accurate as possible. Assure your information is accurate by going online and registering.
You will be asked for your name, address, primary phone number (which should be your home number), and a secondary phone number. This secondary number could be your cell, VoIP, work, or any other telephone number you would like to be called on if an emergency notification call is initiated in the area where your home is located. You may register as many phone numbers to an address as you wish. Sorry, pager numbers will not receive these calls, so please don't use those as a secondary number.
Missing Latitude or Longitude Error
If Code Red is unable to locate your address based on what you entered, a window will come up informing you that it requires a latitude and longitude for your address. There is a link under this message that will direct you to a map where you can zoom in and find your street. You can also drag the map screen in any direction to get closer to where your street is located.
Once you find your street, you can zoom in further and you will begin to see street names. Pinpoint your residence as accurately as possible, then double click on that point and the map software will add a star. If the location is correct, click the submit button. Then navigate back to your information screen.
You must click the submit button near the bottom of that screen to add your information to the database. You will then see a "thank you" screen, and you are done! Note: The map point does not have to be exact; just put it as close as possible to where you think your house is located. For questions, please call us at 970-356-4000, ext. 2899 or email Weld County.
