It was really only about 30 sec long here in SD. Nothing fell off the wall. The Fridge was rocking back and forth pretty good though! ---

I didn’t even feel it. 30 seconds in san diego? I call BS on that. I was in North County SD and most of the people I was with hardly felt it, if at all. ---

I felt it big time at work. I was grinding a bracket and the floor started moving. I was like what the fuck… I literally saw the concrete floor heave up about 6 inches. Looked out into the warehouse and the charger racks were swaying all over the place. It was cool. It lasted about 6 seconds that I noticed. Didnt feel any aftershocks. My buddy described a massive wave moving through the roof the length of the building. (its 750,000 sq ft so its huge) ---

It took me to 5 seconds to realize i felt and earthquade … to seeing the Fridge shake… to get up off the couch and walk over to the fridge and watch it shake was almost 20 sec… Next time I feel an earthquake I will make sure to have a stop watch on hand and time it. ---
