- Listen to safety officils
- Text, don’t talk. Unless there’s a life-threatening situation, if you have a cell phone, send a text so that you don’t tie up phone lines needed by emergency workers. Plus, texting may work even if cell service is down.
- Follow evacuation orders from officials
- Look out for mudflows. Look upstream before you cross any bridges to make sure a mudflow is not coming. If it is, do not cross the bridge. The mudflow could destroy it.
- Build an emergency kit
- Make a family communication plan
