1. I noticed Bernie Ward reported on this

I'm in Malibu and didn't feel a thing. Man, we are inundated with earthquakes! WTF????? LOL! Today's quake in L.A. was kind-a fun!

[doublethink]

3. Yea that was a kinda fun one earlier .....

:) ...... guess everybody up north is assleep, didn't feel this one. :shrug:

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Yep that's it, tomorrow I am getting my quake kit

and will report if the birds go batshit again... oy vey this morning you should have seen them

[funflower]

5. The birds were acting strangely before or after the quake?

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Before about an hour before

And I completely missed it, they have a very shrill alarm like way of screaming when a quake is bout to hit

Problem is they had not done that for years, hell Sunday they SLEP through it... so I completely missed it... I placed the three of them in their cages and covered them... which usually silences them...

Nope they kept at it... after the quake I apologized and comforted them, sun conure even got to shirt dive and just stay there for an hour or so... she was shaking, poor baby her third quake.

20. Isn't that weird? I remember hearing about animals vacating the beaches

before the Asian tsunami.

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. Animals can feel it

of that I am convinced, but these guys are vets... so today I missed it...

Trust me, nothing like apologizing to three birds for missing it...

Worst yet, Connie, our sun, she is a Hawaiian bird, and she is NOT used to quakes... she gets car sick for god sakes.

6. You don't have one!!!

Just Do It.... and don't wait. I've had a car and home set for 16+ years. This site can give you some ideas.

12. Nope we moved back from Hawaii as my hubby

retired from the Navy, so must of the hard stuff (portable kitchen, things like that) are in storage

Going to the surplus store tomorrow... and getting the minimum items I need... even if some will be repeats from waht is in storage

Oh and what to get, used to work disaster services, so will get my ahem list of needs for a week... I need to add my bird's supplies too

[alittlelark]

4. Sigh....

Nothing yet in SF area. You generally want lots of small quakes - especially when others on the 'ring of fire' are getting mod-big ones. The longer the wait the higher the magnitude.

[wookie294]

8. That makes sense

Thanks for the info. I've been in L.A. for only 5 years, so quakes are a bit new to me. I admit today was the strongest quake I've ever experienced and it scared me a bit, but only for 3 seconds. lol. Maybe a bunch of small quakes will prevent a huge one, as you suggest. That would be great!

[doublethink]

11. Well at least someone from SF has checked in.

:) was beginning to think that beach front real estate moved inland a bit up there or something. No one up there responded to this thread ...... good to hear it's no biggie in SF.

[Gays_R_Family]

16. SF Ocean Beach checking in ...

I felt it at the beach in SF ... but it wasn't a big deal.

Could tell it was a big one though ... just very distant.

[alittlelark]

21. How could you tell 'that it was a big one... just very distant'

I want the scoop!!!

[Blue_In_AK]

7. There was a pretty good-sized one up here in the Aleutians

a couple of days ago, too. Shake, rattle and roll.

[slutticus]

9. I felt it move my bed.

Not much though...it just felt like a nudge. It sent the hangers an my closet swinging though.

I'm in South SF.

13. Someone on Coast to Coast predicted earthquakes in Cal. a few days ago

I don't take that show too seriously normally even though Art Bell was 100% right about why Bush took us to war in Iraq before it even started, but perhaps the guy is right. He was basing his predictions based on strong tides and the position of the sun and moon and how their gravity affected different areas of the earth.

[alittlelark]

23. OK.... quit scaring me - because I have tight fitting foil hat.

[doublethink]

14. Okay everyone up there ..... all two of you sound safe.....

so everyone go back to bed, nothing to see here. :) :hi: Peace.

[Gays_R_Family]

15. felt it in San Francisco ...

I'm in the Sunset out at Ocean Beach.

Definately felt it!

Could tell it was a doozy somewhere far away.

[doublethink]

17. It was placed off the coast out in the Ocean ...... are you on the Coast?

Any info on the radio up there?

[Gays_R_Family]

18. I'm on the coast in San Francisco ...

Yes, I'm on the beach in San Francisco, right by Golden Gate Park and the Great Highway.

It was nowhere near as strong here because we are many miles from the epicenter, but definately felt it right at 11:21 p.m.

24. I'm feeling very uneasy about this....

even though I'm in the Pacific NW. Seems like the quakes are moving northward...

Got my tin foil hat on and about to don the suit as well. :scared: :tinfoilhat: :scared: :tinfoilhat: :scared:
