seismic
Felt my second earthquake last night. News report here. Tuesday morning the garbage trucks drive around in the wee hours of the morning, emptying the large metal dumpsters in the office complexes near me, and every time they set one down again the resultant metal *BOOM* can be heard throughout the neighborhood. Last night at 5 a.m. one of those booms coincided perfectly with the earthquake and it felt for all the world like a bomb had gone off nearby. It startled me awake and I sat bolt upright in bed. I remembered the garbage trucks’ habits and chalked up my bed’s shaking to the fact that I had awoken so suddenly. It did take me a few minutes to go back to sleep, though.
