Local earthquake preparedness organizations on what you can do to stay safe

A 6.4 magnitude earthquake struck near Eureka in Northern California Tuesday morning. 

The quake could be felt from the coast of Oregon to San Jose California. 

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the sizable quake injured two people, damaged roads and homes and left thousands without power with more than 72,000 outages reported. 

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said that the quake poses no tsunami threat but damage concerns from potential aftershocks still remain a concern. 

Though the quake has not affected the valley, local emergency preparedness organizations like the Coachella Valley Disaster Preparedness Network stress the importance of staying vigilant.

"Depending on if you're a single person, if you're married, if you have children, if you have pets, everybody needs to be part of the plan…because earthquakes don't discriminate," said Carla Sullivan-Dilley of the CVDPN.

The CVDPN recommends the following:

-Storing 3-days worth of supplies including food and water

-Securing household objects such as heavy furniture and light fixtures

-Discussing safe meet-up locations with your loved ones

-Story a "go-bag" under your bed with sturdy shoes, socks, flashlights and supplies for your animals

CVDPN representatives said that one of the most important things you can do before an earthquake is get to know the strengths and needs of your neighbors so you can give and receive help during a disaster.
