Don't
panic!

    into a building, car or
    bus.
  • In a forest, pick a low
    area under thick, small
    trees.
  • If swimming or boating,
    get out of the water
    immediately.
  • If in an open area, head
    for low ground such as
    a valley or ravine, or
    crouch down.

    objects such as bicycles,
    fences, golf clubs, certain
    appliances.

    poles, hills, clotheslines,
    overhead wires, metal
    pipes, water.
  • DON'T congregate with
    other people - spread
