(This is the only "earthquake font" that would copy. I can't delete the other letters.)
Yes, we
felt the 7.3 earthquake from Nicaragua Monday night, October 13, 2014.
It’s the strongest, longest one
during our three years in Central America.
The yellow country in the map is El Salvador.
The upside triangle country below us is Nicaragua.
{A couple of hours later: They're saying that the epicenter was now at the southern tip of El Salvador on the Pacific Coastline. It was 7.4, and lasted 23 seconds. It seemed much longer sitting through it.}

p.m. 7.3 Earthquake 67Km WSW of Jiquilillo, Nicaragua.
This is the only one we felt.
Exactly 10
minutes later:
10:01 p.m.
5.0 Earthquake 90Km WSW of Jiquilillo, Nicaragua.

4:23 a.m. 4.4 Earthquake 94KM WSW of
Masachapa, Nicaragua
6:27 a.m. 4.6 Earthquake 81Km WSW of
Jiquilillo, Nicaragua
Everyone
came out into the hallway after the minute or so
of our
furniture shaking and the floors rolling.
President López called from his home to tell us to leave the building because of after shocks,
but Majanos said
to just have
shoes, a
sweater, flash light and other things
ready to leave the building if we felt
more.
We shook longer than the
earthquake lasted. Scary!
