Yep it was strong
Praying all is safe. God Bless us all.
Was good 40 secs long. Heard the rumbling first then it hard.
There is a BIG diffference between magnitudes 5.8 and 6.5. Somebody’s earthquake equipment needs recalibrating. UWI’s?
Very very strong…(to me)
yes, it felt very strong here in Jennings
Hoping that the EMERGENCY Management/Disaster Teams are staying ready! Not getting ready, nor will be ready! Ready to go!
Not sounding no alarm but those #Tectonic plates in the Caribbean Sea are very unstable. This is real science not church seance!
