Regional Earthquake Drill

A multistate earthquake drill will have at least 400,000 people in Kentucky dropping to their knees, finding cover and holding on Tuesday morning. The one-minute exercise is part of the second annual Great Central U.S. Shake Out, which is planned for 10:15 CST Tuesday. In Hopkins County, the Emergency Management Agency will test its radio communication with state offices in Frankfort and keep a watchful eye on the earthquake walk-through conducted by area schools, said Frank Wright, EMA director.
