Earthquake Preparedness
September is National Emergency Preparedness Month Today, we are sharing ways you can be prepared for an earthquake!
You never know when a natural disaster like an earthquake may strike, so it's important to #BePrepared. Napa's last major earthquake was a 6.0 magnitude earthquake in 2014, which caused extensive community damage as the largest earthquake event in the San Francisco Bay Area since 1989.
Prepare by:
- Creating a family emergency plan with a plan of where to meet if you get separated
- Practicing the Drop, Cover and Hold On technique with family or coworkers
- Making a supply kit with food and water, a flashlight, whistle and a fire extinguisher
- Protecting your home by securing heavy objects like bookcases, refrigerators and TVs to the wall
