Ok, Blueberry has the best story.

I knew what it was because I was awakened by a quake once while visiting my brother in LA. He was the one who told me about standing in a doorway because it's more structurally sound.

I saw a website earlier today with info on what to do during and after a quake. I'll look for it and post it here.

P.s. as of this morning, they expected the hurricane to reach category 4. Haven't heard details since then.
