I blame global warming, or conservatives in some way.

This is what happens when an earthquake hits wine country:

Ground she's moving under me. Tidal waves out on the sea.

i've never seen a tornado and never felt an earthquake. I do drink wine though so this affects me a little.

Hopefully they can get back on their feet quickly.

Next up: California mandates earthquake-resistant wine racks.

Ut oh, he's on to us sneaky conservatives sneaking in and sneakily warming globes just to undermine the success of our opponents by causing earthquakes and wine wreckage.

i've never seen a tornado and never felt an earthquake.

I was in the Santa Monica mountains about 9 miles from the epicenter of the North Ridge Earthquake in 1994. 6.7. Whoa baby, it badly scared me and the cat, I thought the house was coming apart around me, altho I actually only suffered some drywall cracking. (Took me 20 minutes to find the cat - inside the house. He was hiding under a bunch of stuff in a closet). It trashed a lot of structures in the Valley and Santa Monica, tho, and some bridges. What a mess. One of the first casualties after the quake was a motor cycle policeman responding to work, he found out too late that the bridge ended halfway across.

I had been in sizable earthquake before (in Europe) but the North Ridge one was stunning. I was so sensitive to movement after that I could feel traffic driving by on the road which was probably three hundred yards or more away.

It wasn't large enough for me - CA is still there...

That wasn't an earthquake that was Mexico trying to get California back.

I dont know where Ima gonna go when da volcano blows.......


I've been through a number of earthquakes, including a 7+ in Japan and a 5.5 a few weeks ago in South Africa. Not a good feeling at all being on the 18th floor of a high rise and bobbing up and down and side to side like a boat on the ocean!!

They can have it!!! They have to keep Pelosi and Feinstein. No exceptions!!

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Even 20 miles away, they couldn't escape the quake's savage wrath...

 

[hoosierdoc]

We joke but over 120 taken to the hospital and six critically injured

Really?

I've felt the small tremors we've had around here. 20+ years ago, there was one that I felt in Bedford...it rattled the dishes pretty good for a number of seconds. I remember seeing tornados when I was a kid in OK--never saw one in person since but they've been too close for comfort a few times. Now, tidal waves, volcanoes, wild-fires--I'm good without ever seeing them.

I've never felt a tremor here, even though I always hear of them after the fact. I've only seen one tornado in person, but had a lot of damage from the one back in September of 2002 that came through Martinsville and the southside of Indy. I was on a golf course up on the north side for the one I saw back in the early 90's, and it was close enough that I could have hit a drive into it. But I was God's own drunk and a fearless man for that one...

Just missed the "Big" one in 89. Last plane out before the earth shook.
I think it was 89.

I may not be a huge fan of California, but that is one sad sight to behold.

Meh, coulda been worse. Coulda been in Munster, Indiana at 3 Floyds.

You've got a point there. I'd much rather spend time at 3 Floyd's. One of Munster's finest attractions.

One of? I thought it was the only.
