And it came to pass, Salt Lake City to toilet paper. "It was nice knowing you"
It was that violent. If I understand the Richter scale correctly, the Northridge quake was more than ten times stronger than the one this morning. I agree with the news, this was just a wake up call to retrofit and gain some knowledge about earthquakes and how to prepare.
indeed (though a variant on the richter scale is now used for magnitude) but also the intensity (roman numeral) which is illustrated in shakemaps (which map out the intensity and ground motion on the surface across different locations in space) measure more of what a person experiences at a particular location (which could be further enhanced by how the structure they're in vibrates in response to the earthquake). i've noticed that two earthquakes with the same magnitude could result in different intensities in the impacted area.

I just got back from the local lawn mower repair shop down the street. I'm grilling up some marinated chicken tonight and my propane tank was bone dry. The lady in there told me it was nuts yesterday. People were coming over with 3-5 bottles each to get filled up. It's a smaller tank that they have and she used half of the 250 gallons. She also sold 5 Honda generators in 45 minutes. I said well that's great for business during this slow time until spring hits and it gets a few more people prepared with generators. Lol
I woke up during the earthquake and looked over at my sleeping wife and decided to let her sleep. She later woke up and looked at the news on her phone. She blurted out, "we had an earthquake!" I said, I know, I felt it. Then I started to sing, "It's the end of of the world as we know it". My wife said I wasn't funny. I'm still working on my timing.
Did you feel that? 3.3 just happened.
6.5 earthquake strikes 78 mi north of Boise, Idaho at depth of 10 km, USGS reports
Yeah, Challis/Stanley. I love that area and highway 93.
6.5? Now that will rattle your teeth! Hope everyone is okay.
Tuesday night we have a 4.2 and then this morning we have another 4.2. Anybody else feel it?
Who has earthquake insurance?
I felt that one in Brigham. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthqua...8837/executive
