I got this information off of the Town of Morrisville's newsletter.
"Morrisville recently changed its emergency notification system to ReadyWake! Make sure you register your number at https://wakecounty.onthealert.com/ to be notified in the event of an emergency. The system will only be used for emergency purposes such as: drinking water contamination, utility outage, evacuation notice and route, missing person, fires or floods, bomb threat, hostage situation, chemical spill or gas leak or other emergency incidents where rapid and accurate notification is essential for life safety."
You may wonder if any of these scenarios could ever happen here, and if you would need to be notified. I was interested to see that a train derailment caused 300 people to be evacuated because of possible hazardous chemicals in eastern North Carolina just a couple of days ago:
