Great post Pam!
I felt it in San Diego and know "Earthquakes" rolling, jolts, shakes etc. In 1970's I actually saw the street ripple in a wave. Sorry, don't have the language that you would use, but living in San Diego since the 1950's kinda used to what goes on. Different States have different issues, I don't know anything about tornadoes and when I was in Iowa I just kept driving.
Most people will never ever be prepared for Earthquakes/Fires here in California ~ get a Red Cross Kit ~ lights, know where to turn off everything. Put a backpack full of copies/etc. in the trunk of your car since no one knows when disaster strikes...we are not wizards! Be Knowledgeable, BE PREPARED!!!! Also, make sure when you do a HOPEFUL disaster plan you include your PETS PLEASE!!! Living in California I keep 3 dog crates to help out with fires!
Never know and don't put this off ~ tis IMPORTANT!
Thanks again Pam!

Yeep. New faults, areas to watch, and I'm sitting here watching the news that went out from Channel 7 in the 10-17-1989 San Francisco Earthquake (see below)....We really need to get people better prepared--as in, knowing exactly what they will do in the case of emergency so that they can do it without panicking.
We all hear 'be prepared' but it so rarely goes beyond, Have a kit ready and know what to do', and no one really spells out, "First, do this, then do that, then do the next thing'. Maybe someone should, for the people like me who don't watch TV anymore, don't hear a lot of news, and so on.
Just thinking....
