Surok 0 Posted July 12, 2004 About an hour ago an earthquake struck an area in Slovenia. I felt it, but it wasn't strong here. They say it caused moderate damage where it hit. Does anyone here have any experience with earthquakes? We seem to be getting more and more here in Slovenia... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Phaserman 0 Posted July 12, 2004 we just had one not too long ago here in the Chicago area (Midwestern US), where they aren't that common, but I've been in a few on the West Coast of the US. I prefere them to tornadoes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RikerChick 5 Posted July 12, 2004 I grew up in southern California, earthquakes are quite common there. We were far south enough though that we never had major damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Picard 12 Posted July 12, 2004 We sometimes have light earthquakes here (it's not very common) and people always get scared and call the police. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
