Earthquakes may happen anytime: what to do during the shaking?
🠪 INSIDE: take shelter, keep away from windows.
🠪 OUTSIDE: stay away from anything that might collapse (bridges, roofs, electrical wires).

When you feel an #earthquake, and report the shaking and damage level at your location, we can create an intensity curve like this one👇Be aware though❗The intensity decreases if we get far away from the #earthquake (no matter its magnitude).
