Did you feel it? Version 2.0
 

Or at least that's what it felt like here in HB at 1:55 this morning.

To my dismay, I was about to fall asleep after a night of grinding away on a 10-page case that's due tomorrow. BLAH!

Anyone else feel it?

Whoops, here it is...

I'm wondering why was rumbly this far down...

Nope, but to be fair at 1:55am it would have to be of a magnitude such that it would be guaranteed to make the lead on the morning news, worldwide before I would feel it. Oh, and I'd probably need to be a little closer than a few thousand miles from the epicenter I suppose.

No, but - WTF? Tom had picked me up from work and were in the area of Western/Melrose at 9:24 PM when the whole sky lit up a sickly green color. It was bright actually, which was odd considering it was so foggy, and NIGHT. We have no idea what it was, but I for one welcome our new insect overlords.

Nope. I was passed the F out.

Visible mojo for LSPE and her invocation of our insect overlords.

I missed the shaking and the cisit by insect overlords, but Calliope woke me up at some undetermined time in the night to give me a facial. Ahhh, the exfoliating effects of cat tongue.

4.2? Call me when you get a real earthquake.

Interesting, I dreamed of an earthquake last night. To the best of my recollection, I didn't dream of insect overlords, although one of my dreams had a "war of the worlds" sort of feel.

Perhaps they weren't bugs after all, in which case, my dreams are starting to scare me a little. :)

Earthquake? I thought that was just the cats playing Herd of Stampeding Wildebeasts Across the Serengeti. (It's their favorite nighttime game... :rolleyes: )

Didn't feel it, but I do remember waking up around that time.

Nope sound asleep in my bed with Lucy curled up by my head. :) Plus hurt my leg on Sunday night at work so i was had pain relievers in me and those put me to sleep and i don't wake up til the alarm goes off for Matt to get up for work.

Whoops, just had one here in SF. Mere moments ago. Not sure how big it was, but I'm on bedrock and we were shaking!

Yup, here it is!

A moderate earthquake occurred at 8:04:54 PM (PDT) on Tuesday, October 30, 2007.
The magnitude 5.6 event occurred 8 km (5 miles) NNE of Alum Rock, CA.
The hypocentral depth is 9 km ( 6 miles).

Very good roll here in Dublin. I'd say it was the strongest I've felt since we moved here in 1998.

A good 5/6 seconds of rolling and then I'm not sure how much of what followed was more of it or just our building swaying. Our first roller, too. All of the others I've felt have been a couple big jerks.

Fun stuff. More please.

5.6 is decent.

My wife felt it up here in P-town. I was stumbling around with the garbage cans in the dark, so it slipped by. The dog felt it, I'd say. He was unusually happy to follow me inside, particularly since we skipped our evening walk.

Felt it here. Thought that a car hit the side of my building. It jolted my bed forward twice.

Didn't feel nuthin'.

We've been having some minor tremblies up here this past month- the last ones were in 2001, when we had a series of 2.5 to 4.5's over a period of six months. Not a big deal to you seasoned Californians, but we didn't know we were earthquake prone and now the scientists have discovered some very old fault lines, one of which literally runs under our house.:rolleyes: They tend to be very shallow, which the seismologists find concerning. (I don't know why, but that's what it said in the paper).

Keep safe and make sure you have your emergency kits ready- a 5.6 is a bit large to ignore!

I didn't feel the earthquake, but I'm suddenly reminded of my job......

It was my 1st earthquake. It was cool & scary.:eek: Taylor slept through it. Hopefully it doesn't happen anytime soon.
