Knowing how to protect yourself during these events is crucial. When an earthquake occurs, if you are indoors, stay under a strong table or desk. Avoid windows, mirrors and heavy furniture. If you are outside, move to an open area and stay away from buildings and power lines. Do not try to run into a building for safety. During a heavy storm with strong winds, stay inside your house. Close all windows and doors tightly. Do not stand near windows or glass doors, as flying objects may break them. If you are driving, pull over to a safe place and wait until the storm passes. When a flood warning is issued, move to higher ground immediately. Do not walk or drive through floodwater, even if it seems shallow. Floodwater can carry dangerous debris and may sweep you away easily. Remember, staying calm and following these rules can greatly increase your chances of staying safe. 1.

Hold on to it and wait until the shaking stops. Do not use the elevator. If you’re outdoors, go to an open area, such as a park, and stay away from buildings, trees and power lines. For storms: Stay inside your house and close all windows and curtains. Unplug electrical appliances to avoid damage from lightning. Do not go out to pick up things blown away by the wind, as strong winds may cause danger. For floods: If you live in a low-lying area, move to higher ground as soon as you get a flood warning.
