Oklahoma’s Largest Earthquake

We’re watching Saturday Night Live and it sounds like a helicopter is flying over. But the “helicopter” keeps getting louder and louder. Then we notice the TV is shaking around and the sofa is vibrating.

Turns out a 5.6 magnitude quake was happening about 60 miles away. Pretty scary.

That might not sound scary to a West Coaster, but after 30 seconds or so we were getting a little tense. I’m not planning on chasing down any more earthquakes.
