It’s fucked up. I experienced 1999 as a kid and it was brutal. I still remember that noise. Like rubbing two bricks together and multiply it with thousands. Luckily it was summer, we were able to get the hell out. And it always hits at night.
Living in California where imports think a four is a big deal, I was prepared to be amused by the quake.
Clearly it’s a sign that god doesn’t like the current administration.
“Unfortunate to report the updated rapid damage estimate using Risklayer CATDAT for the #Turkey-#Syria #Earthquake:
16,800 deaths (Range: 4,400 to 39,100). Still quite uncertain. Median economic estimates in the order of $15 bn.”
This will be terrible.
Dudes, the loss of life is increasing and it is cold and heavy snowfall. The situation is not good at all, people have no choice but to pray 😞
And I thought the 2020 Izmir Earthquake was bad.
I live about 200 km away from the center on the mediterranean coast of turkey in Mersin, it was felt very strongly here and the entire apartment was shaking like crazy i thought i was gonna die right there. If it was this strong 200 km away i cant even imagine how hard it mustve hit in the center

7.8 isn’t a [a monster](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2015/07/20/the-really-big-one), but it’s nothing to sneeze at at all. That’s big.
