Example of Partial County Alerting for a Flash Flood Warning (Graphical Depiction)

(After) Future EAS Footprint for Flash Flood Warning

Note that the text scroll of the warning will state the National Weather Service has issued a Flash Flood Warning for “Northeast Clark County, Northwest Clark County.” The cardinal language descriptions are fixed as follows:

• Any broadcaster wishing to relay specific partitions must add each unique, six digit location code to their EAS box filter.
• Any broadcaster wishing to relay an all-county warning will need to check with their EAS equipment supplier for additional instructions.
• Additionally, partitioning will benefit lower wattage AM stations serving specific county partitions.
