    My emergency kit has a radio with AM / FM / NOAA (emergency weather broadcasts in the USA) and a hand crank to charge its battery for exactly this reason.

        At least I live in an area where the most likely disaster is an earthquake that destroys the entire area, and I’m not sure how useful weather alerts would be in that case.
