What a shitty year

Talking about earthquakes, today was the second time in two days the building I'm at swayed gently... I'm assuming due to seismic activity.

The death toll is sky-rocketing...

We had a small earthquake not long after this one, it felt more like a strong gust of wind than anything.

It doesn't seem there was anything of that scale nearby during the moment I recall. Usually if I feel something its centered in Chile (or the frontier there.) Maybe it was some weak quake.
