And then a few seconds later the shifting back and forth - for a half a minute. Like turbulence in an airplane. Surreal. The biggest, closest one I've ever felt in decades here. My son and I went running outside thinking a bomb went off like you said, loud and house shook. It was over like that tho. 5 seconds max. TBH an earthquake didn't even come to mind because they are rare. Thankfully our neighbour came outside in less then 15 seconds yelling to us it was an earthquake.

The first thing I thought of when I felt the short shake was definitely earthquake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Positive Canuck Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 (edited) 4.7 magnitude Earthquake strikes just off the coast of Vancouver at 1140 pm Dec 29th. Biggest quake in these parts in almost 20 years. Where were you and what u feel ? some people slept right thru it, not us. at home, about to go to bed, just finished a puff and BAAAAAAAAM !!! Vancouver - Main and Broadway- 3 story APT, shook like hell, building felt like it was being run into by a locomotive , thankfully only last 5 -7 seconds, never thought earthquakes would be loud for some reason. Really doubt anyone got hurt but holy, that was intense. When the Big One hits here i don't wanna be around thats for sure.

PRIMO88 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 When i felt it we werent sure if it was a real earthquake. Weird how the first place i felt an earthquake i just happened to be in richmond for the first time in ages. Worst place to be. It was pretty scary though. Makes you realize how unprepared we are.
