Actually, Napa was the epicenter.
There were fires and structural damage.

Scary stuff. We lost power for five hours. It was a very weird thing to wake up to.

I've been in two feelable earthquakes, both times I didn't feel them (lol).

The first one happened around 5am and I slept through it, but it woke my parents and made breaking news the following day. I know my dad said it rocked his ceiling fan, and it measured maybe 5.1 (five point something). The next day I kept trying to feel aftershocks and I could swear I felt subtle ones, but didn't know for sure.

The second one happened probably around 3am. I was out of town (southern Illinois) and probably far enough to not be affected as much as St Louis, but my friend near St Louis texted me saying he was jolted awake to his room vibrating and things were getting tossed off his dresser. My mom also texted me about it.

you know if humans were smart they would design all their stuff out there to be earthquake-proof.

Japan did that, didn't they?

Uh they do.

But as I'm sure you know, not all of the architecture is completely infallible.

A lot of that stuff was made before Earth Quake proofing became a thing. If Humans were smart, they wouldn't build by hurricane and earth quake prone coastlines.

The only earthquake I was in was while I was in my very very suspended trailer. The quake's epicenter was somewhere in Virginia. I was eating Oreo's 'n milk and loving around. I didn't even notice it.

Let us hope this earthquake does not cause one of those... upershocks? I don't know. One of those earthquakes that is triggered by a smaller one and is much bigger.

Because, y'know, the big one.

on the bright side

the quake probably shook off all the grapes in those vineyards
