Sea Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 6.6 in Colima. Per early report. That's major for that area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibarra Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Not so mini. Had to hold on to palm tree in our yard so as not to fall down. One of our dogs fell down a flight of stairs, she's ok, but scared to death. Looking for new cracks as our bovada was moving back and forth. I guess National Hurricane Awareness Day should be taken to mean day of earthquakes. Just had a small after shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halfglass Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 In Chapala Haciendas pretty strong, lasted for almost 2 minutes. Waves in the pool were going from one end to the other going over the sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ibarra Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 We live on the side of a mountain in Brisas de Chapala, worst earthquake tremor we have ever experienced even while living in California. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floradude Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 My house in Upper Ajijic must be on bedrock because I did not feel it. I heard it and I saw it. First I heard two pieces of metal banging twice at a high pitch. I looked out the window and saw the water sloshing back and forth in my birdbath. I knew it was an earthquake so I concentrated but I did not feel anything. That was it. I have lived in Mexico over 19 years and I have never felt an earthquake, but at least I heard and saw this earthquake. I lived in Seattle for 60 years so I know earthquakes.

ibarra Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 Not mild in Brisas de Chapala. Hawaii is concerned about tsunami because of our earthquake. https://www.khon2.com/local-news/threat-to-hawaii-from-mexico-quake-not-yet-known/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I have an anecdote that I should have added to my above message: Speaking of sloshing-- Around about 1970 I was living in an apartment east of Seattle. It was the middle of the week and I had the day off. It was sunny and I was out sitting by the side of pool reading a book. I remember there were also two ladies out there. No-one was in the pool Most people were at work. Suddenly the water in this large pool started sloshing back and forth. I said, half-joking to the ladies, "earthquake." Later that evening on the news we heard that there had been a large earthquake in Alaska. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezpz Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I was just in Mia's and felt it there, not big or long, but concerning. I thought it was my old age showing up, my legs felt shaky, and customers calmly went outside and waited - no big deal. I've never felt one here before, I was standing up when it happened. I talked to others who thought it was just them, like I did. I figured it was at the outer area of a bigger quake somewhere else. I was in CDMX in 2017 a few months after that quake, but there was not much visible damage by that time. Bottom line, the buildings that were built to code did not get damaged but the cheaply built ones did. While taking a walk around the hotel, I was chatting with a couple of locals when their quake warning signal went off. It was the loudest most god-awful sound that would definitely get your attention. But the locals told me it was just a warning and they stayed calm so I did too.

Lexy Posted September 19, 2022 Report Share Posted September 19, 2022 I was in bed reading, tired, ready for a nap when I realized my bed was moving. I thought, can it be--there was no doubt that my queen-size bed was really moving, and it lasted a while. I looked over at my dog on his pillow as he lifted his head and looked around, looking puzzled. My clock showed 1:55. It seemed to be noisy outside. Wow . . .

Lexy Sometimes you can hear booms along with the feeling you are on water in the waves. I'd be real tempted to sleep outside for a while with mosquito net of course.
