These days, it has become very easy to cut down channels of communication – cellular sites can easily be damaged by a bomb explosion, a hurricane, a earthquake of a great magnitude, or even a really powerful typhoon. Even non-dramatic causes, such as severe snowfall, heavy rain, or equipment failure can cause communication and power lines to get interrupted.
You and your loved ones need not risk an occurrence wherein you search the ends of the world for each other. This is possible if you maintain a method of communications with your family members and loved ones even when conventional methods of communication are no longer working. Here are some tips on how to stay in touch with them even during the apocalypse. (h/t to OffTheGridNews.com.)

Beal is the author of a children’s book about earthquakes called “Tummy Rumble Quake”. She provides simple training sessions on basic duck-cover-and-hold on tactics via her nonprofit organization BLOCKS. She is also working with day-care centers to improve their earthquake emergency plans and procedures.
