As officials in Northern California continue to assess the damage following this morning's 6.4 magnitude earthquake, authorities in the Bay Area say the temblor should have everyone checking to make sure they’re prepared for the next big one.
Beyond simply building one, Ken Weimar at Center Hardware said it's most important to keep a kit where you can easily get to it and check it often.
"Yeah, keeping it all together and keeping it stocked," he said."Making sure that no one's been sneaking stuff out of it and making sure that the water and your canned goods are fresh." Along with a kit, public safety officials also recommend putting together a communication plan, which should include items like a hand-crank radio so you can get emergency information in the event that cell systems aren't working.
