People have mentioned signing up for the civil defense alerts, which is a great idea. I got a phone call when the warning went out.
But I was already on top of the concerns, thanks to my subscription to worldwide quake notifications via USGS. Just before 8 pm, the email came in of the Japan quake, which was originally 7.9 and soon revised upwards to the high 8's.
Here's the link to sign up for the notifications:

I signed up for the C.D. email and phone call list.
Now will sign up for this one too.
Thanks again for the great info and link.
