It was like being on a boat on the water. It seemed to go on a long time. The birds yelled the whole time. They're saying it went on for 45 seconds. Now they're warning of possible aftershocks.
Aftershocks can be nearly as bad as the original quake.
The ferry terminals are closed. So there are people stuck out on the water. One of the weird things was how the radio station I was listening to when the quake hit went off the air. Nothing but static. I came back inside when it was over and heard just static.
