It’s funny, I was sitting on the couch browsing Lemmy on my tablet when my phone made a weird notification sound. Pulled it out and it said it was an earthquake warning. I sat there like an idiot thinking “WTF is that about” when the room started shaking and I remembered we have an early warning system.
You know, it’s not cool to have an earthquake when it’s pouring rain outside. I was 1.5 miles from the epicenter of the Northridge quake, and had to get out of my apartment, but at least it was a beautifully clear night outside. No fair doubling up on destructive phenomena (though neither Hilary or the quake looks like they’ll cause any significant problems where I am).

That warning system was great for everyone outside Ojai
