SPECIAL NOTE: Seasonal text alerts are a subscription-based service. Although it remains a seasonal program from November 1st through March 31st, the subscription will renew automatically the following year at the beginning of the new Winter season, November 1st. There will no longer be 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 renewal date. This applies to existing customers only, carried over from the previous season.
