  1. Baltimore reminded me of The Mothman Prophecies. That was based around another bridge collapse and the happenings around that time were creepy to say the least.
  2. Yeah this registers a 0.8 on the Long Island Traffic Index
  3. I feel like there was an aftershock stronger the original quake a few years ago in California.... just going by my memory, of course such a thing would have a higher chance of happening there. This was a 4.0 following a 4.8 which itself had only a 10% of happening.
  4. Maybe one of these days we'll have computer models that predict when and where earthquakes have a higher chance of occurring.
  5. somewhat more powerful than an eclipse
  6. why aren't we in an earthquake warning?
  7. a building in Newark deemed unsafe and also cracks visible in driveways and on the roads.
  8. I literally just felt another trembling-- I don't know if it was an aftershock or just this wind that's still gusting, but I don't think it's the wind because I just felt the floor move a little under me as I was sitting down.
  9. Wow, it was completely different down here, this one felt MUCH more violent and lasted MUCH longer, I was never scared in 2011, while with this one I felt like the walls were about to collapse and different parts of the house were shaking differently and it came in multiple waves.
  10. Sometimes they go by so quickly and you don't realize it's an earthquake until after it's over. This was not one of those. It lasted long enough so that you knew it was an earthquake while it was happening, sort of like a slow motion train wreck, plus I noticed the shaking moving from one side of my house to the other and it was a violent kind of shaking, like some giant was holding my house in his hands and shaking it vigorously from the outside.
  11. Probably the earthquake was responsible for that on the first date lol
  12. and then two days of rain Wednesday and Thursday? I hope we resume our warmer sunnier pattern after that!
  13. I wonder if we can have tsunamis on lakes though? Or is there a different word for that? A seish (spelling?) In August 2011 I was actually getting ready to take a bath when that earthquake happened and my bathtub was full of water and I heard the water sloshing back and forth from the other room.
  14. Definitely a lot scarier and longer lasting than the one in August 2011. In what year was the first one you felt?
  15. so this quake came in 2 waves and lasted for over 30 seconds?
  16. animals always feel it sooner than we do, but in this case the dog was a little slow to react lol
  17. we already got our big surprise with the earthquake today!
  18. I had books come off my shelves here too
  19. that could have happened in August 2011 too. and we know wastewater injection in areas where fracking happens have resulted in quakes up to 5.8
  20. Yes! I found this video earlier and there was another one I saw from Long Island from Merrick from Nassau County like this. The fracking quakes in Oklahoma were mag 5.6, 5.6 and 5.8 and caused property damage and quake insurance is through the roof there now. I would never want to experience a 6.0 or higher, it would probably cause a ton of property damage around here.
