Saanichton (Canada)
I live in a mobile home in the tsunami zone directly across from the site on Vancouver island. Oceanside Resort rv park. Bottom of Cordova spit. Land is crushed rock on top of salt marsh . Full undulating motion somewhat like a snake twisting . Starting from east to west. Twisting north to south motion 5 to 10 degrees from horizontal with loud banging as if home was being struck from the south by a truck.0

I felt two brief periods of shaking. Nothing fell off the walls or tables, it was more or a swaying than jerking feeling. The first period lasted a few seconds, with some rumbling. After about five seconds, a second swaying and rumbling started again lasting a few seconds.0

Loud rumble followed by the whole house shaking. A plant fell off a shelf. Strong enough that we felt we had to check the basement and the brickwork outside for cracks and/or damage. Sidney, BC0

We were awaken by loud noise with violent shaking of the bed that lasted for few seconds. We are visiting and renting this home and this is our first experience of such scary feeling. No power outrage or obvious damage to home. Thank GOD0
