Default Anyone feel that Earthquake?

Apparently some of us calgarians felt the effects of an earthquake. Any of you feel it? I’m in the northern Calgary, I didn’t feel anything. Scary stuff.

Are we in the end game?

Nope, but I also slept through an earthquake in Hungary when I lived there.

Never felt one. Didn't sense anything. I've always wanted to see the earth's natural forces shake some shelves and stuff out of curiosity.

Didn't feel it down here in Lethbridge. 2nd time 4 years that an Earthquake was felt up here but we didn't notice it in our house. Either our house is built to withstand earthquakes or its always unstable and we're used to it!

Little ones are kinda fun, medium ones are scary as hell.

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling

No tsunami warnings for the lake communities?

Also what’s with Yellowstone trending? Are they tying this to the super volcano?

What would a tsunami on a frozen lake look like? I’d pull my rescue board out in a second if it was melted!

Didn't feel anything at our house but a coworker sent me a video of his light fixtures and blinds swaying in his condo downtown.

I felt a pretty big earthquake in California once. My dog got up from a sound sleep and sat in front of me looking right into my eyes. 30 seconds later the floor tile started to move. They totally know.

2.6 earthquake in Yellowstone, followed by a 6.5 in Boise. Maybe it will keep following the line down to Ranier and give us all a nice little distraction from covid.

I’m in Idaho, but more on the eastern side so I didn’t really feel it. It was more like 4-5 seconds of rumbling (according to my wife) but that’s about it.

Of course it just had to happen on Taco Tuesday. My apologies, I thought all that rumbling was something entirely unrelated.
