Zombie Blog: Beware of Earthquakes!

Oct. 18 will be the largest earthquake drill in US history… then watch out for Zombies!

Did you feel the 3.3 earthquake at 9:09AM on Monday, Oct 8? The epicenter was about 7 miles southeast of Napa. 

We were lucky… this time.

Monday’s real earthquake happened just in time to shake up Napa County residents to join 9 million+ Californians, including 15,058 people (so far) in Napa County, in the Great ShakeOut earthquake drill on Oct. 18 at 10:18am.

The Great ShakeOut is an annual opportunity to practice how to be safer during big earthquakes with 3 simple steps: "Drop, Cover and Hold On."   Find out more at www.shakeout.org/california.
