When I was driving home from a work event last night, I turned on the car radio only to find out that San Diego was under a TSUNAMI WARNING from a big earthquake off the California coast!  Talk about weird (and frightening!).  Of course, by the time I got home, it had been cancelled, but still...

Newflvr, where are you located??

The Newfs and I live on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.  I missed both earthquakes!  and the Newfs never noticed either.  So much for being super sensitive!

Wow I am out of town right now.  I was so frustrated the other day because just when I finished posting, I decided to look at the earthquake site and BOOM we had just had a 7.0 out to sea west of Crescent City.  I figured this is SPOOKY and I tried to post immediately but I could not get a post in.  I tried and tried, it got so frustrating.  I wonder if that was the big one that was predicted or is it still coming this week.  I think we should all watch our animals.  My sister in Willits said she felt the shaker pretty good and it lasted a long time.  We did not feel it in Fresno, too far away.  Here is the site again, they just updated it and you can post if you felt it.

Here's an article I just read about it  http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=514&u=/ap/20050616/ap_on_re_us/california_earthquake_3  

"The 1:53 p.m. quake had a preliminary magnitude of 5.3 and was centered near Yucaipa in San Bernardino County east of Los Angeles, according to the automated seismic network operated by the     U.S. Geological Survey, California Institute of Technology and other institutions"

Wow 3rd one this week... busy week for you guys..    :)

DOUBLE WOW.  Just got back and heard the news about a few hours ago.  I was in the air at the time (don't think we can feel it up there hee hee).  This is very interesting, what Nick told us has come true and may continue.  I have lived in earthquake country all my life and this is the closest I have seen that they predicted them.  Maybe they are on to something.  Has anybody in California had animals that have acted strangly?

FLASH it is now Thursday night before midnight and getting ready for bed, one last check on the USGS site and BOOM another 6.9 quake off the coast of Ferndale.  This is wierd and more wierd - I have never seen so many, so close together, not aftershocks. And my dog is still not acting strange.  Better hit the hay and see what goes tomorrow.

OMG - I just read about the quake too, Lins.

That is it - I am sending you all an earthquake/tsunami care packages with helmets for falling debris, water wings for the pooches, and life rafts so you can all paddle over here to the east coast (Land of Hurricane Season) and bunk with me and Ranger when California breaks off of the U.S.

Seriously, though, are you guys okay?!?!?!?!  I am worried!!!!

Hugs,
Heather

I think we can all find room for the doggies and people if they need a place to bunk and park the dog houses.  :)   
The news didn't say it was a terribly severe quake...but shake the ground under me once and I'll call it severe. 
We here in Michigan prefer our tornados.
Let us know guys if you're OK!
