For once I actually felt it, but it was underwhelming.

I never even noticed it. Something moved on top of the fridge and I thought it was the breeze coming in thru the window...

Felt nothing at all... maybe I was trembling myself, angry that the power was gone for 8 hours since 6 AM b/c of "mantenimiento"?

It's worse here on the rare occasion when the power does go off because most people don't have plantas or inversores in their homes. Banco de Reservas was fine, they have a planta, but Popular was using an inversor.

We just got back from Cabarete at 2:30 and it was on when we arrived, I took a nap from 3 till 4:30 and it was off when I got up and has been going off and on a few times since!

Only 8km/5miles deep - quite a shallow one. Surprised it wasn't felt strongly.

Was there an earthquake early this morning around 4am in Santiago? I swear my bed was shaking and I know it wasn't me and my wife.

If it was not maybe I should not had drank tequila and corona with this cold.
