2.8? I'm amazed you felt that! Unimpressed with your earthquake, sir

 

[Gravity Aided]

Even here, doesn't really make the news. Of course,@Cathryn has bigger problems than earthquakes to deal with at the moment. Although I hear the wildfire is a bit more contained.

Ugh the wildfires! And the drought!

No sign of those up here, but I have been woken up by 2 earthquakes in the UK in the past!

This one in 1984 occurred when I was a student in Manchester. I was used to heavy traffic passing my flat causing low-level rumbling, but the quake made my bed shake violently - scary

I was in Snowdonia for that one .... Still remember thinking one of my friends was playing a joke on me, I was on the top bunk in a youth hostel, when I realised everything not just me was moving.

Perhaps you failed to understand the context, this is Oakham, Rutland, if the trees begin to shed their leaves early it is front page news.
In the latest from here Mrs Brown was seen to be walking her dog in an anti clockwise direction around the school playing fields, nearby residents are scratching their heads in bewilderment, every morning without fail Mrs Brown has always walked the playing fields in a clockwise circuit.
PS
If you like I can keep you updated on more exciting news as it happens.

We can't beat 'em on earthquakes so just ask her to show you the 1,000+ year old US buildings ...

You obviously didn't see the impact on the community.

Thank you, at last, someone who understands the gravity [intended pun] of our situation.

Mayan Temples!

Mayan Temples!

In the US of A?

(I haven't checked but maybe there are some in the bits of Texas that used to be part of Mexico?)

San Francisco eh?. Home of Starfleet Command. I think you're a bit biased there about earthquakes just because a little crack in the planets crust is nearby.
