How to sign up for Titus County emergency alerts (Hyper‑Reach)

Hyper‑Reach is Titus County’s alert system for local emergencies and community alerts. If you register using the Community Alerts option, you can set it up so alerts can reach your cellular phone, your email, and/or a TDD device - so you’re not relying on just one method to get time‑sensitive information.

Before You Start

• ✓ Postal Address
• ✓ City (NOT Municipality)
• ✓ House Number
• ✓ Apartment/Unit/Suite
• ✓ Zip Code

Gather your contact details before starting - phone numbers and email addresses where you want alerts sent. Hyper‑Reach automatically calls listed landlines, but unlisted landlines and cell phones need to be registered separately. Want alerts by cell, email, or TDD? Use the Community Alerts option when you sign up.

1. Enter your address details - Fill in the Postal Address and City (NOT Municipality), then add your House Number, Apartment/Unit/Suite (if you have one), and Zip Code.
2. Double-check the street address you chose - Hyper‑Reach uses your street address so Emergency Alerts affecting only your immediate area will reach you, so it’s worth slowing down here to get it right.

1. Pick how you want to be reached - Use the Community Alerts option to register the additional information that allows Hyper‑Reach to notify your cellular phone, email, and/or TDD for local emergencies and community alerts.
2. Add the numbers you actually rely on - Hyper‑Reach will automatically call your listed landline number, but you need to sign up for any unlisted landline number or cell number.
3. Know what you’re agreeing to for texts - If you submit a mobile number, you’re agreeing to receive text messages for the alerts you select. Message and data rates may apply, and you can reply HELP for help or STOP to opt out.

1. Choose the alert categories you want - Select the alerts you want to receive, including local emergencies and community alerts, and choose Weather Alerts if you want that category too.

Hyper‑Reach can target Emergency Alerts to specific areas rather than blasting everyone at once. That's why the form asks you to pick your exact street address. Get it wrong, and you might miss alerts that affect your neighborhood - or get ones that don't apply to you at all.

Here's the key difference: listed landlines get calls automatically. Unlisted landlines and cell phones don't - you have to register those numbers yourself to receive alerts.

If you enter a mobile number for text alerts, message and data rates may apply. You can reply HELP for help, or STOP to opt out.
