For the first time in a long while, my heart leaped and I exclaimed as I felt the jolt of an earthquake. This morning’s tremor was abrupt and sent the G5 rocking back and forth on the rack.
It was only a magnitude 4.6, only a 2 on teh Japanese scale, and centered in nearby Chiba. I’m not sure why this one shocked me more than other recent ones, but I’m glad to know that I’ve generally gotten used to earthquakes.
