If you still haven’t created that earthquake preparedness kit, consider this week’s 5.4 quake in Borrego Springs a rolling reminder. The next one might not be so gentle. To help you get started, the county Department of Public Health offers a convenient checklist to download, with recommendations on what to have handy when an emergency hits. (Don’t forget the pet food.) You might also want to click around the Southern California Earthquake Data Center’s fault map and other resources.
