4.6 in El Monte. I’m in the South Bay and felt it. DS and DH slept through it. My older DS is at his dad’s closer to the epicenter and texted me right after it happened that they are fine.
Yeah. But, hell! It would have been much nicer NOT to have a fucking earthquake tonight! I’m in such a sad awful place right now.
It was some rumbling and a strong jolt. And now Iit’s going to take me forever to relax enough to sleep. Blargh! I really hope it wasn’t a precursor to anything g because we do not need that right now, 2020!
It was loud, wasn’t it? We haven’t really had a loud one in a while! I’m glad y’all are okay!
So much louder than the big one about a year ago? That was rolling. This one was shaking.
Yeah. That one was more like being on a boat in choppy waters. It was somewhat loud, but that was more the stuff in my house taking part in the dance party. Lol!
My cousins are about 8 miles from the epicenter. My dad grew up in South El Monte. I wonder if the grandparents' old place held up. Probably so. They and my dad built it in the '50s and iirc there was a lot of cinderblock involved.
