Witness location : Coronado (Panama) (124 km NW from epicenter)

Time : T0+ 701 min

Corondo. Minor but felt it, bed shook and my pool had waves! I've only felt one other here a few years ago which was stronger yet still minor. We're lucky to live in an area of the world that is generally not affected by natural disasters (hurricanes etc).

Witness location : Anton (Panama) (130 km NW from epicenter)

Time : T0+ 2992 min

Just laying awake in bed and felt the unmistakable sway of the building although very slight.  Other travellers with us spoke of a slight feeling of being unbalanced while walking.  Effects lasted for only a few seconds.

Witness location : Arraijan (Panama) (143 km NW from epicenter)

Time : T0+ 952 min

Short, about 5-10seconds but unmistakable. Had woke 10 mins before. Bed shook and items rattled, others in hotel felt too, but colleagues in Panama City did not.
