Very ugly strong one in Xindian. Cats all puffed up.
Yilan
Felt as if I had tripped or something, then stopped. Still some swaying here in Hsinchu.
Just got the emergency alert. 22:52
Very light in Hualien. About a 2 feel. Epicenter must be elsewhere.
That was a powerful one wow.
Shit, I’m camping in NanAo and I was shaking inside the tent O_o
Hope my aquariums are alright…
I got one, too but I can’t read it, except for the “5.3” part.

5.3 Yilan
I’m guessing keelung area or NE
Taipei and New Taipei 3
The worst ones of the past few weeks seem to happen around 22:50. Guess I shouldn’t be surprised that seismic activity could be related to the earth’s rotation, but it does harsh a mellow.

So it was in Yilan 10 miles from my place. nice
That was at least a 6 on the cat-o-meter
I usually am not freaked out my earthquakes. The the frequency of them lately is concerning. And that last one was violent. What’s going on? Anyone with a good article on why so many earthquakes lately?
Was it stronger or softer than the ones last week?
different vibe
Up and down
Not side to side

Also much deeper this time. This one was 46km under but felt so violent
It was completely different. Last week was a lot of swaying and rocking. This to me felt more like I lost my balance very suddenly - and then just went away.
You know how they train you to fall in martial arts? I felt that training snap in for less than a second. Was definitely getting ready to fall.
