Answer 3

Answer 4

OMG YES! I almost cried!!!!!! 5.8!

Answer 5

i live in ct theres no earthquakes

Answer 6

Nope...I must have been sleeping still. That's strange because I woke up about 12...Maybe I was doing something. You can't really do anything about it...You just have to get under a doorway or a table. Most are over pretty soon.

EDIT:It was in southern California. I live in northern California...The nearest fault line to me is like the Hayward Fault Line...Or something like that.

Answer 7

Nopee.

I live in Florida

Nothing here

Answer 8

Nope.

Answer 9

That was in Southern Ca, right?

I didn't feel it, I'm in Northern California. I know about them cause we get them here too. Well, doorframes are the best because they have the most support. However that won't work in school so getiing under a table or desk will protect you. You should get on your knees, and cover your head/neck with you hands. After it stops it's best to go out to an open space in case there are any after schocks.

Answer 10

OMG yes i was totally scared!

Answer 16

haha! i was at work! i work at  a movie theatre in fullerton and i was waiting for my coworker to bring some jalapenos to some guests that were waiting...then it happened, i was directly under a 100lb sign so i ran away as soon as i realized i could die in an earthquake. some people who were buying tickets at the time ran to the parking lot.

after that everyone pretty much had a laughing attack

how to handle? don't panic, go outside, or under a doorway.

laugh about it when it's over

Nope, didn't feel it

Answer 20

nope, minnesota is just cold, and very hot in the summer, no earthquakes though. =]

Answer 21

Nope.

I live in Newyork so I am not on the same plate of the earth. California may not be where it started because they have proved you can feel an earth quake from far away but not straight across because we have proved our core is solid.

It normals for earthquakes around where you live.

Answer 22

omg yes it was a bit scary I live in the third floor i seriously thought the building was going to collapse so i grab my dog and ran under the table

i also live in Cali.
