5.7 Earthquake 70 km NNE of Punta Cana.

Quake felt in Punta Cana. And my better half woke up in extreme panic.
Surprisingly, yours truly was as calm as a cucumber, even though if it was the strongest tremor I've ever felt.
I kinda trusted the building's construction.

It was quite a jolt (here in Bavaro)
Had some before but never this strong, no panic but some adrenaline after a couple of minutes.

About 10:45 this evening an offshore quake rattled the house. No damages noted.

“Hey, Lucifer, it’s ‘cool as a cucumber,’ not calm.”
“You’re neither the brightest knife nor the sharpest bulb, Luci.”

Yes, quite a jolt. Indeed!
It turned seconds into minutes. Thought it was never gonna stop.

Felt it last night here in Santiago.
Wasn't too strong but it lasted longer than they usually do.

Do they have a tsunami warning system in DR, via SMS or siren etc....?
