EARTHQUAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Home » Blogs »

July 7th, 2010

I JUST WITNESSED MY FIRST EARTHQUAKE!!!!  Unbelievable.

At first it was an erie feeling.  I didn't realize until about 5 seconds into it that it was an earthquake.  I was sitting in my computer lab and I looked up out the window and the window beams were shaking.  Truly bizarre for this inlander from Colorado.  For the past half hour the lab has been patroling the USGS site.  So far we know it was a magnitude 5.4 from the San Jacinto fault which is somewhere NE of here.  My dad felt it in LA so I'm guessing some of you guys father north also felt it.  What a fantastic experience!
