What to do now

Drop to hands and knees, protect head and neck, and hold on to sturdy furniture.
Do not stand in a doorway or run outside while shaking continues.
If in bed, stay there and shield your head and neck with a pillow.
If driving, stop in an open spot clear of buildings, trees, bridges and power lines.
If already outdoors, stay outside.
In a tall building, expect alarms and sprinklers, and never use the lifts.
Near hills or cliffs, watch for falling rocks and landslides.
