Does anyone even notice a 3.0? ?
I didn’t feel anything, but I think I was napping.
But a 3.0 could mean it’s a precursor to a larger quake…
We had a big one in the last couple of years.
My house is still crooked from that one.
I’m still finding someone to level it for me.
Hope we don’t end up like Rio Del…
By the way, CALIFORNIA FAIR PLAN, the group FIRE insurance started by the State in response to so many insurance companies pulling out of the area due to our wildfires, also offers EARTHQUAKE INSURANCE at a reasonable price.
I paid $200 last year for the premium.
How much is your deductible?
Yes, if it is close and shallow. Proximity and intensity are everything.
The Richter scales measures the intensity. ?♂️
Yes. Exponentially. Then it’s a matter of how far away horizontally and how deep. Also, duration. The farther away, the less effect. The material the shock travels through is a factor; Rock, sand, mud, water, whatever. Dr. Dengler, stat, stat.
My dog felt it.
