UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Just got a week's worth of groceries. Nothing special. Did pick up a few canned items I might not have gotten otherwise, but no panic from me. Working in manufacturing for infectious disease research, I get to know a little "how the sausage is made". Wash your hands, keep your distance, most of us will be totally fine.

Other stuff...just some first aid and outdoor stuff I had laying in other parts of the house mostly.

 

lube.

bro that’s rad!

 

Anyone else just feel that? I'd guess a 4.x earthquake rattled the house and freaked out the dogs in Sandy.

Edit: Holy Shit

 

Yep, We felt it pretty good out here in Riverton.

 

I don’t recall feeling it in Logan, relieving some pressure I guess

 

Just as grocery stores were starting to be stocked up again ...

 

Felt it pretty good out here in Saratoga Springs! Building was swaying back and forth. Never felt an earthquake so it as nuts.

 

I was sitting on a wobbly bar stool in my kitchen taking a conference call. 5.7 felt like 7.7.

 

Ha, I was sitting on the toilet for my morning business call...

 

Well at least if you did have the poo scared out of you, it was under control

 

What else we gonna get thrown at us this week?

 

Pretty sure a comet is supposed to come inside moon orbit radius sometime in the next few months.

 

Sweet! Then the zombies right? Or was it aliens first? I forget.

 

Well, we do already have a second moon...

Im ready either way

 

I work out by the airport. I was putting on coveralls when it happened. I had to hang onto the door of my metal locker. One of my coworkers was in the middle of a dump. So far no building damage or loss of power.

 

The news is out in Magna and there's a fair amount of damage to the buildings out there.

 

yeah. that was a bigger one for sure. i was unable to sleep since like 4 or 5 in the morning so I felt it. but I've been through similar so it didn't scare me much. Just heard from the UofU Seismologist that this is probably it. maybe some big aftershocks but nothing too crazy now.

Funny thing, same thing happened to me last time we had a swarm. I was unable to sleep and then fell asleep right after the quake hit. lol.
