Had a 5.4 magnitude earthquake shake Illinois today, which caused where
skeren,
seanmonster, and several others of us live to have a wobble. A few minor spots of damage, and the reports so far are it's been felt in four states.
It was odd. For a moment, I thought it was an explosion. Then maybe some sort of wind activity. Then it went to earthquake.
Sort of funny that most peoples first thought, if you listen to people talking, was either explosion, or a pet.
All sorts of fun out here today.

Yeah, if your not used to certain types of disasters, you don't really know how to spot them or react when they happen.
odds are, I'd have no clue in tornado situations
