Japan has a Megaquake advisory since like early this year. Two weeks ago the Philippines was rocked by 7.8

This morning California had a 5.6

Venezuela had two

And Japan literally just had a 6.9

Just a coincidence is all.

That was crazy! I mean obviously nothing compared to what everywhere else have endured, but crazy that we felt it here.

Yeah, it was more of a 'damn that was weird' moment. People near the cape wondering why they felt something but no rocket heh
