Email Newsletters & Alerts
We’ve done some housekeeping and freshened up the look and features of our email alerts and newsletters, and here is where you can revisit your preferences to receive the information you want: Breaking News, Weather Alerts, Nesi’s Notes, Good News, and Daily Roundup emails are just some of the newsletters available to keep you in the know.
Please follow the button below to see a complete lineup of email offerings and make your selections. We will never send you emails unrelated to the topics you choose.
App Notifications
Customize Your Notifications: Choose which 12 News topics you want to be alerted about »
We have a new and improved WPRI 12 News mobile app that allows you to choose which topics you want to be notified about. Our Pinpoint Weather 12 app is also customizable and can be set to follow users geographically, so you’ll receive weather alerts relevant to where you are or where your home location is set. With WPRI 12 mobile apps, you can be in the know, but choose to focus and limit your alerts to what you care about.
Closings & Delays
Select any or all of the schools, daycare, businesses, health services, municipal parking bans, and special notices for which you’d like to receive alerts.
