Seismicity says it was a 6. Off of Hualien.

The one in February was a 6.1

6.0 out to sea 104km E of Haulien

Where abouts are you? That’s rough

Hsinchu near Costco. 18th floor.

Weird, I’m in hualien now having lunch and barely felt it

Odd that it would have been bad in Taipei but not here

Hmmmm…

This one was a bit farther out in the sea than the ones earlier this year. I’m surprised we felt it like we did. If it was so far out I would have assumed it’d be slightly bigger than 6

Yeah weird, only showing as a 2 in Taipei but that was a real swirler. Felt nauseous.

Maybe closer to surface?

31 deep

Yeah it didn’t feel particularly deep. Just wiggled back and forth. The ones that bounce you up and down are the really bad ones.

Does seem weird that this one felt so strong in Taipei. Maybe the long duration got the building swaying?

Yes, I think so. I was on the second floor and barely felt it. My coworker actually missed it.

2nd floor in Taipei. And it was not pleasant at all.

Call me a n00b, but I actually stumbled over to my desk and fished out my passport & put it in my pocket. Just in case. :cold_sweat:
