Pocono Record Text Alerts

Pocono Record Text Alerts reach you immediately on your mobile device with breaking news, traffic alerts, weather updates and school closings and early dismissals.

You pick the category of news, we'll send you an instant message when something happens.

Please note: Most alerts are delivered regularly Monday through Friday and on weekends only when there is a major news event. However, all Weather advisories are subject to a quiet time between 11:00 PM and 5:00 AM during which time all messages will be queued and delivered when the quiet time ends. Severe weather warnings are not subject to this quiet time and will be delivered 24/7 when issued by the National Weather Service.
