14. Yeah, I'm up north too and it was a doozy. |
|
Sister in Anaheim felt it but nothing unusual there. Parents in south in Kensington said it was amazing. Their first one since moving out West.

5. I knew it was big - you can tell how big by how long they go on, and |
|
how far by whether they shake vs roll

9. You can build for earthquakes. Hurricanes and tornados not so much. |
|
And most of the time, you don't feel the quakes. Of course, a quake in the NE would do a whole lot more damage that one here.

7. Two aftershocks already? |
|
About 5 minutes after, there was a 3.2 on an Elsinor fault spur just north of Julian that Laz felt, and about a minute ago, we felt a small one that sloshed the water in the aquarium a bit here in North Park.

Rolling earthquake. Weird. I hope everythings o.k. and it didn't hit a large population down there.

I've been doing a shot of Tequila with every aftershock and now it's a little difficult to tell...

19. My two younger dogs just stared at the ceiling. |
|
Probably wondering "why is that shit moving?"
The 14-year-old-wolfhound didn't even wake up.

24. I lived near the great rift valley and over a three year period |
|
I became rather inured to them. I was told that during a rattler I sat up in my bed and said "Oh, another fucking earthquake." I don't remember the earthquake or waking up.

26. My sister-in-law in Poway felt it, but my aunt in Victorville didn't feel it. Did you feel it? |
|
I don't have any such relatives, just an approximation of AM radio after every So. Cal. quake :)
