IMPORTANT! Hot spring county is now using Hyper-Reach instead of the Code Red system. All citizens of Hot Spring county need to sign up to this new system to receive critical weather alerts for your specific address.
Hot Spring County Transitions Emergency Alert System to Hyper-Reach
The Hot Spring County Department of Emergency Management (DEM) announces it has transitioned its emergency mass notification system from CodeRED to Hyper-Reach to ensure continued, reliable public safety communications.
This change follows a recent cybersecurity incident involving CodeRED that disrupted service and rendered the system unreliable for emergency alerting. Due to the outage and ongoing operational concerns, Hot Spring County OEM determined the system could no longer meet the county’s emergency communication needs.
Hyper-Reach provides a secure, dependable platform for delivering critical alerts, including severe weather warnings, evacuation notices, public safety threats, missing person alerts, and other time-sensitive information. Notifications can be delivered via phone calls, text messages, emails, and mobile app alerts.
IMPORTANT: Residents previously registered with CodeRED must re-register to continue receiving emergency alerts.
🏠 Use the Correct Address: Be sure to select the correct street address so location-specific emergency alerts reach you.
• State Highways (9, 51, 84, 128, 171, 222) are under “State Route”
• U.S. Highways (67, 270) will be listed as “US Highway”
