Rain, quake lead to evacuations in Yorba Linda

I chose to write about what is going on in Yorba Linda with the rain and the earthquake this morning because I have family who live there. It is amazing how much they have been affected by natural disasters lately. From the fires, to the heavy rainfall with threats of massive  mudslides, and now the earthquake this morning. Luckily, the quake was small..and didn't do a lot of damage. But it has left the grounds very unstable because of the rain and residents are being told to evacuate. It is so sad that these people just can't seem to catch a break these last few weeks. The major media outlets do a good job of covering what is taking place, but I hope that they can raise awareness of how much help is needed for residents. Media should be a tool that can bring help, not just news. Thousands of people across California have been devastated by the fires, and now the rain. It's a shame more people don't help them out.
