Earthquakes 2005

Felt that one. Was a rougher shaking, so probably closer to Taipei than others.

Update: east coast on the Hualian-Yilan county line.

Was it just me, or was there a quake about ten minutes ago? Anyone with any info?

P.S. I’m in Taichung.

I felt nothing in Taipei, just FYI there is a thread for earthquakes, not need to start new ones. Welcome to Forumosa!

Anyone feel the short but strong jolt early this morning (about 4am)? It didn’t last long, but it sure made my building moan and creek! I live in Taichhung.

I woke up in bed feeling as though I were on a ship in a storm for a moment or two. Rather disconcerting.

Yeah, felt it around 4:30 in Kaohsiung. Biggest one I felt down here in a while. Good fun.

I felt it in Taipei. 1st floor. I was just going to sleep.

There was an earthquake?
My friend from the States asked me if I was in a quake but I didn’t feel a thing at all so I said no… :unamused:

Totally felt it. I timed it at 41 seconds. I happened to already awaken by ideas that needed writing down when it hit.

It’s funny that you were awakened, the cat I am sitting had awakened me about 1 minute before it hit! It has been shown that some animals can predict earthquakes!

Woah…Double whammy! Scary. I’d say that was the strongest since 921!

Damn straight…Wow! Weird, twice in a row like that.

I hate earthquakes.

Jeez… this was a nasty one :astonished:

Oh baby that was a fun one, twice in a row! Fun FUN FUN

Bugger me sideways that was a monster. Was waiting for shit to start falling down…

I’m in CA but just got a call from my wife freaking out. Sounds like a big one. CWB web site is crawling, I’ll try to post the stats as soon as possible.

Hm, CWB is saying 5.9… Waiting for the report to come up to find out where.
