cstone Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 At approximately 10:20am, my entire house shook. My sliders rattled and it felt like a sonic boom without the noise. I have lived in quake country for 20+ years, but havve never felt one here. We are in Mirasol. Anyone else feel anything ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarplumfaerie Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 At the east end of San Antonio, heard/felt a big boom but nothing rattled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideSky Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Nothing on USGS earthquake site - closest one was off the coast of Oaxaca; Likely something else happened; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringohombre Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 I am in San Antonio and at the time you mentioned was sitting at mt desk on my computer and nada, ziltch, zero movement. I can only imagine that this must be something concerning your particular structure. Hope all is OK after an inspection. PS, I also lived in earthquake country for many years and lived through a few doozies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suegarn Posted January 21, 2018 Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Didn't feel or hear anything out in West Ajijic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cstone Posted January 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2018 Turns out to have been a neighborhood house had some sort of natural gas boom due to a clothes dryer malfunction. At least that's what I understood from the policeman. There was a fire truck, police truck and an ambulance. No flame, no one hurt, but it sure did make everything jump a bit. Thankfully, no one was injured and there was no fire. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
