disaster "1 million dead already"

[still]

I was in a secluded location far away from any cities. seems like somewhere in the high plains. it was chilly outside, but no snow. the grass was brown. no leaves on trees. lots of pines in the distance and snowcapped peaks. I was inside a small building. it reminded me of a pre-fab little worksite office on the inside. there were a few chairs and a tv.
the building started to shake. the tv was on with no volume. pictures were flashing with titles "at least one million dead already nationwide". the lights in the little building flickered. the tv went off. we had been really safe up there, but the shaking had finally reached us. pieces of the ceiling started to fall, but we weren't terribly afraid because it wasn't a giant concrete structure. we said "ok time to go outside". everyone got there shoes and coats and went out. I couldn't find my sons shoes. I didn't see them just outside the door where everyone elses were. I saw a small pair of sandals and said "you can just wear your sandals then". but a man said "those are my daughters sandals". I had to go back in the building for his shoes. the ground was shaking violently by then. but he had to have shoes.
