Woke me and my family up. Usually the quakes around here are brief and sway in one direction. But this was long, rolled and jiggled all over the place. I waited in bed, trying to decide if it was going to intensify. When it settled all the animals were making a commotion. 0

I was sleeping. So was everybody in the region I guess. I had a vision about it half a second before it hit. I was in my bed and thought someone was trying to wake me up and then I heard noise in the kitchen and realized it was an earthquake.. I was scared it was gonna get bigger because I have a big metal lamp over my bed.. Now can't sleep and scared that we're gonna get aftershocks :(0

it felt very odd I'm not sure if it was because it was technically two earthquakes but it was much different than previous experiences and I have lived through at least 6 or 7 really good ones not just some off the top of my head other day when there was two earthquakes within minutes apart0
