The QuakeAlert app by @EarlyWarningLab will have coverage for all of California. USGS approval for a public rollout is happening now.
Do you know what to do in an earthquake? Practice with @AppleValleyCA this Thursday as we #DropCoverHoldOn. For more information visit: shakeout.org.
The high desert and portions of So Cal can expect a #FireWeatherWatch to be released by the @NWSSanDiego for Monday and Tuesday. This may lead to a Red Flag Warning as we approach the end of the weekend. Humidity will be low and Santa Ana's will be blowing.
