Anonymous Coward User ID: 23209346 Costa Rica 09/05/2012 11:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Costa Rica here, I am at 1000 feet asl and with a view of the Pacific ocean. If there is a tsunami coming I will be able to see it coming. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23209346 The howler monkeys where going nuts. I still hear some of them. The last 2 weeks I have had a problem with worms, they seek the inside of the house. These are not regular earth worms though, they are long and very thin. I think they are deep earth worms, never seen these types before. I have spent other rainy seasons here and never seen them before. Anyone else here in costa rica who have seen these worms in their houses the last couple of weeks? And have you ever seen them before? By the way I have had no new squirmy intruders in the last day. thanks for the info - fascinating about the monkeys - and the worms. Worms must mean something. Did the monkeys start making noise BEFORE the quake?? No, they started as it began... Have not felt any aftershocks so far. |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 23224549 Germany 09/05/2012 11:58 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Here are some testimonies after the M7.6 It was pretty long! I felt it lasted forever cuz I was in bed and stayed in there for some seconds to verify it was a shake. I then went to the kitchen and warned my sister. The water fountain was shaking and the lamps were moving from side to side. I went to the garden and the front gates were trembling and the street lamp post was shaking the cables swinging from side to side. The movement was definitely a swinging movement. Awful!!
