Here are tips to start preparing for an earthquake.
Parents with toddlers often do the same thing to prevent a TV stand from toppling over a mischievous child climbing furniture.
• Use earthquake-resistant picture hooks to keep frames from crashing in earthquakes. Affix the bottom corners with earthquake putty. • Get a fire extinguisher or two; know where they are. Keep them visible, like on a kitchen counter away from the stove. Make sure everyone at home knows how to use them.
• Phone and internet service could be disrupted. Texting will be an easier bet than making phone calls — and may be easier in the first few hours before cellphone towers drain their emergency battery power. Many cellphone towers have a battery supply that lasts as little as four hours, while critical towers have generators that can hold out for 48 hours. When Superstorm Sandy hit the New York area, about 25% of cell sites in the worst-hit region lost service because of power outages.
