We had a 5.7 earthquake at 7:09am, this morning. We’ve been feeling lots of aftershocks since then, some big, some small.
I was sleeping and was awoken when the bed, walls, and floor started shaking and swaying violently. I wasn’t at the epicenter, thank goodness, but it was still scary.
My two cats were hiding afterwards. One was hiding behind the furnace in the laundry room and the other was curled up in the bathroom sink (which he never does).
We’re all safe. Hopefully, it doesn’t happen again.
I’m glad you’re safe. The last earthquake we had earlier this year, I almost fell off the sofa when I was jolted awake. My dog was barking because the house was creaking and windows were rattling – she probably thought it was a giant squirrel on the roof or something.
I’m glad you’re safe and everything is fine. We’ve had a few lately and they get your attention for sure. The last one we had was so quick I didn’t even have time to jump up before it was over, so I just sat there staring at the sound it made in the walls like a crazy person. It was funny.
