Yeah...I felt it. It was a very strong one. I was outside in our courtyard hanging up laundry (I want it done right - I do it myself) and @ 0819 it hit. And it hit strong. Powerful jolt, not sharp, and it continued for a good 20-30 seconds. Which can seem like a very long time.
Here in Tainan there was a broken water main about a 1/4 mile from my house. Not any other damage that I've found out about. Somethings falling off shelves and like that.
I've been here coming up on 6 yrs and this was the strongest one I've felt so far.
But fortunately, not much, if any, damage here.
My water was off for about an hour and a half...I think the mains close to my house have auto-shutoffs when there is a major pressure change.
Thats about it. Sunny and getting warmer.
Thanks for the concern...8-)
