Tremors Felt in Dubai – Magnitude 5.3 Earthquake NEAR THE COAST OF SOUTHEASTERN IRAN (8th of May 2009)
May 8th, 2009 at 03:40am ibrahimo
On my clock it was 2:49 AM when I felt the tremors in my room, I was reading my favorite blogs and I felt the bed shaking and then I looked at the mirrors in front of me and they were shaking, although these kind of tremors became more normal during the past few years, yet I still do freak out and panic whenever they happen because I keep wondering if this could be the BIG one.
As usual I quickly went to the USGS website to check what happened but it was still not reported, then I checked twitter where I found couple of people asking the same question I had, DID YOU FEEL IT?
