Anybody else feel it?

Yup...near Portola CA... TheProgressive May 2013 #1

Is it possible that this movement might relate to the bridge collapsing in WA also? nt kelliekat44 May 2013 #63

The bridge collapsed forty-five minutes before the earthquake Brother Buzz May 2013 #64

But maybe something was moving 45 minutes before the quake? Just a thought. nt kelliekat44 May 2013 #65

I believe an oversized truck was moving forty-five minutes before the quake Brother Buzz May 2013 #66
