Thought it might be you breaking the sound barrier in your S

I woke up at 4 something too, couldnt get back to sleep til about 6, at wich time one of the cats that was stuck in a room next to mine woke me up throwing himself into the locked door. I let him in and hew was all freaked out making noises I never heard from him. Poor guy.

Weird all these cat-related earthquake experiences.

Woke all three of us up! Interesting that while standing, the house seemed less 'shaky' than when I was prone (sleeping). It sounded like there was a bunch of people walking on the side of the house.

That was the first time I actually felt an earthquake. It was kinda cool and creepy at the same time. I was in a meeting for the second one around 10:15a this morning. Missed that one.

Dogs too - ours must have sensed it because they started barking just before the tremors came through...

Nope, I did not feel a thing. I sleep heavy though.

A bit after 10am this morning our computer monitors at work shook a little.

The p-waves arrive first. Animals are more sensitive to these. We normally only notice the s-wave.


7 total quakes total. 5 were only 2.x; 1 was 4.6 & the wakeup call this morning of 5.2 Link: USGS 39N-88W
