Dispatch escalation

Get emergency responders moving

If this is an emergency in the U.S. or Canada, call 911 now. IMPollez EAC operators can help organize your location, hazard, people affected and accessibility needs while you make the call, but the present release is not connected to a police, fire or EMS computer-aided dispatch system.

An EAC operator may say “dispatch confirmed” only after an authorized emergency authority returns a confirmation or incident number. No confirmation means not dispatched.

Location-based resource search

Find the help you need near you

Choose a resource and enter a city, ZIP/postal code or address. IMPollez opens an authoritative directory or a current nearby-results search. Always call the provider to confirm hours, capacity and accessibility before traveling.

No search has been submitted. Your typed location stays in this browser unless you choose to open a provider search.

Directory results are supplied by their named providers and can change. A listing is not proof that a location is currently open or has capacity.

Live official information

Check active emergency alerts near you

With your permission, IMPollez sends your coordinates to its own emergency endpoint. It checks U.S. National Weather Service point alerts where available and the worldwide Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System (GDACS) feed for major disasters. Your location is not stored by this page.

No location has been requested. Anyone may use this free service without signing in.

Official hazard trackers

Track global disasters, hurricanes, tornado watches and storms

Open the current authoritative source for the hazard you are watching. These live external systems remain authoritative; IMPollez does not copy a position, warning or forecast and present it as its own.

Worldwide

Global major-disaster alerts

Current GDACS awareness for earthquakes, tropical cyclones, floods, volcanoes, droughts and wildfires worldwide. This does not replace local warnings.

Open GDACS global alerts
Hurricanes

Active tropical cyclones

Current National Hurricane Center advisories, forecast tracks, watches and warnings for active tropical systems.

Open NHC hurricane tracker
Tornadoes

Current tornado watches

Current NOAA Storm Prediction Center watch products. A watch is not a local warning; follow your local NWS office and emergency alerts.

Open SPC tornado watches
Live radar

National Weather Service radar

Official radar views with location weather and storm-based alerts. Radar imagery does not replace an evacuation or shelter instruction.

Open NWS live radar

GDACS provides worldwide major-disaster awareness. NHC, SPC and NWS links provide U.S. hazard detail. No single global feed contains every local warning; always follow the official meteorological and emergency-management authority for your jurisdiction. Immediate danger: contact the verified local emergency service now.

IMPollez guidance

Ask your manager

Manny or Mandy can help organize the available options and next steps. They do not replace emergency responders or determine shelter capacity.

Speak With the Executive Management Team
Availability integrity

Never send someone to a door on a guess.

Shelter capacity, operating hours, eligibility and conditions can change quickly. IMPollez distinguishes confirmed information from reported or unknown information, shows the source and freshness when available, and directs people back to the authoritative provider for final confirmation.

BEFORE YOU TRAVEL

Confirm the route

Check official evacuation orders, road closures and local emergency alerts. Never enter a closed or hazardous area.

Confirm accessibility

Ask about mobility support, medical needs, service animals, pets, language access and family accommodation before departing when possible.

Protect essential records

Bring identification, medications, chargers and critical contact information if it is safe to collect them. Do not delay evacuation to gather property.

Global scope: Location-based nearby-resource search can operate internationally. Emergency calling is currently source-verified for the United States, Canada, the European Union, United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. Other jurisdictions remain available for resource search but must show “verify locally” until an EAC operator verifies an authoritative national source. Live ingestion combines U.S. National Weather Service point alerts where available with GDACS worldwide major-disaster awareness. Neither source is presented as complete coverage of every local warning.

Free to everyone. No sign-in or IMPollez subscription is required. No paid placement determines ranking. IMPollez is not an emergency-response agency and does not guarantee third-party availability.
