What’s more earth-shattering than a hurricane?

An earthquake, sir.

I was in bed, wondering, “What is that shivering?”

Turns out it was a magnitude 5.2 earthquake.

I know… right?

Just felt a bit of a tremor, but still. That mess was a bit unnerving.

“The British Geological Survey (BGS) said the epicentre of the 5.2 magnitude quake was near Market Rasen in Lincolnshire. “ (source – BBC NEWS)

Find Lincolnshire on the map… then find Durham. I’m in Durham – so I was a fair distance away from the origin of the tremor. BBC says that this was the biggest quake in 25 years, since a magnitude 5.4, which struck North Wales in 1984.

Crazy stuff, man. Crazy stuff.
