Vehicle intelligent processing and presentation of wireless emergency alerts

A non-transitory computer system for processing and presenting a wireless emergency alert at a vehicle, comprising:

• a wireless communication network configured to broadcast the wireless emergency alert, the wireless emergency alert including an alert message and geographical coordinates defining one or more alert areas associated with the wireless emergency alert;
• and
• a computer system of the vehicle including a processor, a memory, and a communication circuit in communication with the wireless communication network, the processor being configured according to computer-executable instructions for:
• autonomously receiving the wireless emergency alert over the wireless communication network,
• comparing a current location of the vehicle with the geographic coordinates to determine whether the vehicle is within or near the one or more alert areas defined by the geographical coordinates, and
• if the vehicle is within or near the one or more alert area,
• generating, via the computer system of the vehicle, a map that illustrates the current location of the vehicle with respect to the one or more alert areas;
• displaying, via the computer system of the vehicle, the map at a display screen of the vehicle;
• creating, via the computer system of the vehicle, a notification that the vehicle is within or near the one or more alert areas, and
• transmitting, over the wireless communication network, the notification to one or more user devices of contacts provided in a contact list, wherein the contacts are selected and added to the contact list by a driver of the vehicle.
