Different ground areas feel it differently, I don’t think anything less than 4.5 I would notice, I had one here in Wasilla Alaska that was 5.3, was hardly much to talk about, all rock up here in my neighborhood.

Different ground areas feel it differently, I don’t think anything less than 4.5 I would notice, I had one here in Wasilla Alaska that was 5.3, was hardly much to talk about, all rock up here in my neighborhood.

When I was in the Dominican Republic in 1979, I was squatting down trying to get wadded up paper out of one of the desks in the classroom when I lost my balance and fell over. I thought, "Geez, I can't even keep my balance." Then I heard other teachers yelling something about an earthquake. I ran out into the courtyard with them and for the next half minute or so I could feel the ground moving back and forth. It was a weird feeling to consider that EVERYTHING was moving back and forth. And that was only a 3.6 earthquake. Of course, that part of the the DR is the Cibao Valley through which runs the Septentrional Fault, the one that goes off into the Puerto Rico Trench, one of the deepest ocean trenches.
