I called my brother in Temecula to wish him a Happy Resurrection Day, and he told me of the earthquake. I had no idea, so I zipped over here.
He said they definitely felt it there. Wow.
Prayers for those affected.
*ping*
Last time I felt an earthquake was the Montana quake of 1959. Lot of folks killed in that one.
We’re one earthquake closer to Army Get On, I tell ya!
People get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord
People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
among the loved the most
There ain't no room
for the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just
To save his own
Have pity on those
whose chances are thinner
Cause there's no hiding place
From the Kingdom's Throne
So people get ready
for the train a-comin’
You don't need no baggage
you just get on board !
All you need is faith
to hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
you just thank, you just thank the Lord
We were just starting Easter dinner in Palm Springs when it hit. We are used to them but it was SO long that it was surprising.
Talked to a friend in San Diego and they felt it pretty good as well.
Prayers going up for all of you on the west coast!! Be safe!
I wonder if London Bridge is falling down?
Is it in Lake Havasu City?
If this van’s a’rockin....
No thank you!
Since the 7.2 earthquake in Baja about seventeen hours ago, there have been 190 aftershocks. That does not count the other quakes in the Southern California region, specifically just over the border in the United States. It refers only to quakes tagged as Baja.
Southern California experiences earthquakes daily, most of them too small for people to sit up and take notice. Some of those over the last 17 seem to have been related to the major Baja quake. They have increased in strength from the 3.0 range to upwards of 5.0.
Everyone knows this isn’t unusual, the aftershocks. That swarm of 190 Baja quakes does seem elevated to me, but then I wouldn’t be surprised if even that is typical for major quakes. It’s just that I’ve got a new tool that allows me to track them better.
