Don't stay in the house or building during the tremors. Get outside (sit down) and away from any tall structure's to ride it out.
If you have gas lines in your home, (going to the stove, water heater and such) check them after the quake by adding some dish soap to a little water and rub over the connections. If you see bubbles, then you have a leak and need to call the gas company. Please stay safe you guys. We will be keeping a close eye on all of you out east. |
Thank you, this is valuable information.
I thought going outside, away from tall structures is best. My only fear here is that we can't get away from the native trees, some of which are over 100 feet tall.
