Another earthquake just a few minutes ago.... 4.7 this time. We were sitting on the couch, which is very sturdy/heavy, and does not sway.... and we were swaying!
This one started out with a big wave, then dissipated quickly. Did not last long at all. They're calling it another aftershock. It was bigger than the "foreshock" from 2 am Saturday.
Also, Dave had told me that there ARE NO fault lines in Oklahoma, but based upon a news story just now featuring a representative of the USGS, there IS a fault line, and these earthquakes are taking place right on top of it.
So...that, at least, explains it!!
But still....pretty freaky. I have heard that OK has had more earthquakes recently than California.
Why do we have to keep breaking records this year? Coldest/snowiest winter on record, hottest summer on record (not just here, but anywhere in the country, ever), most/biggest tornadoes on record...now this?
Okay, that's enough!
We can stop now....
