Earthquakes are one of the greatest natural hazards for Washington residents. Practicing what you should do when the ground begins to shake is an important part of being prepared.
On April 25 state broadcasters will initiated the “Drop, Cover and Hold” earthquake drill through the Emergency Alert System.
Tune into KIRO radio (97.3 FM) at 9:45 a.m. to join local residents and businesses as we “drop” to the floor, take “cover” under a sturdy desk or table, and “hold” on to something sturdy until the shaking stops.
For more information about how to protect yourself during an earthquake, visit www.DropCoverHoldOn.org.
