Alerts are a subscription-based service, and despite being offered at a mid-season discounted rate today, it remains a seasonal program from November 1st through March 31st each season. The subscription will renew automatically the following year on November 1st at the full price for the entirety of Winter 2025-2026. There is no longer a need to sign up individually for the service(s) every year as long as the payment source on file is current, and prior notification to cancel was not given prior to the product’s renewal in subsequent Winters.Â
