" * Earthquake Crawl under a sturdy table and cover your face and head with your arms. Stay away from windows and large bureaus or bookcases that could fall. If you become trapped under debris, cover your mouth with a cloth or shirt, and tap against a pipe or other object to make noise. (Don&amp;#039;t yell for help unless you have to; you risk inhaling dangerous quantities of dust.) If you are able, leave the building once the shaking stops--aftershocks can bring down a structure compromised by the initial quake. Finally, if you&amp;#039;re outside during the quake, steer clear of buildings and utility wires. * Tornado Once you hear a storm warning, tune to a NOAA weather radio for tornado alerts. If an alert comes, seek refuge in a basement--either your own or a neighbor&amp;#039;s--or go to an emergency shelter. As a last resort, stay on the lowest floor of your home. If you&amp;#039;re in a car as a tornado approaches, get out and seek shelter indoors. If you&amp;#039;re caught in the open, lie flat in a ditch or depression and cover your head with your hands. * More Tornado Survival Tips * Flood If a flash-flood warning is issued, move to higher ground immediately--don&amp;#039;t wait to gather belongings. In any flood, avoid downed powerlines and moving water. Six inches of moving water can make a pedestrian fall, while a foot will float most vehicles. * More Flood Survival Tips * Hurricane Heed evacuation orders, first shutting off utilities (&amp;quot;Shut Down Your Home in 5 Minutes&amp;quot;). If you stay home, turn off gaslines and fill your tub with water. Secure shutters. During the storm, move to an interior room and close all doors. * More Hurricane Survival Tips Click here for 18 more crisis tips you need to know! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
