Cockalatte 8 months ago
I was sitting in my house and all the windows were shaking and the power lines were swaying like crazy. My dog (a huge husky) ran and hid. Scariest day ever haunts me every moment, of every hour, of every day.

krisztinai 8 months agoI was the only one in my office that felt it. It wasn’t that strong; I thought it was due to construction outside the building. They thought I was crazy until the news reports started to come in.
