I saw all the social media both on SBH and here on Anguilla, where I am now. I have to say, I didn't feel anything here! That sounds scary!

The only time I have ever felt an earthquake was on St Barth about 12 years ago. Such a strange feeling.

Holy cow! Any 6 pointer would make even a Californian sit up and take notice! We don’t even get out of bed for anything less than a 5, either. Hope everyone is ok

We felt it in Grand Cul de Sac too - a whole lot of shakin' going on...

Colombier checking in, at first I thought it was a construction accident, a crane or rock truck tumbling down the mountain. The whole house shook and I could hear loud rumbling. My first earthquake that I actually felt.. yikes

Enough excitement. Now relax and stay safe.

I am so glad you are ok! And we always remember our first ..mine was on my honeymoon in Acapulco at about 5 AM on my birthday on the 9th floor of the hotel, a precursor to the Guatemala quake which was a 7.5...and there definitely was damage! I told DD that I was most definitely NOT moving with him to California two days later...well, 50 years later, I guess it all worked out!
