Default Um, Earthquake...
I was under my vette welding a muffler on and the ground shifted beneath me, I about pooped my pants. I live near train tracks so instantly thought it was the train... but no horn... then WOAH.

Did you feel it? Where?

The coyotes are completely quiet tonight. The earthquake 10:53pm tonight caused so many bugs and birds to fly that they showed up on radar.

5.6 ...strongest earthquake in Oklahoma history.
