… Sensory experience: 3:32 p.m.: We had an earthquake! Two short, sharp jolts that rattled the house hard and sounded like sonic booms or explosions (Kate just called from a neighborhood up in the hills, where she said people were out in the street, a little spooked by the shake).

Wow, that was close. I wonder what causes that boom sound, which I’ve heard people describe before. Our earthquakes sound like a freight train.
Be careful out there.
