7.2 Earthquake Hits Mexicali

3:40 pm. I’m lying down watching “The Raid on Entebbe” when my hovel starts shaking. I feel like I’m riding a horse. The shaking goes on for about 30 seconds, about the longest I ever remember. Report

My movie — streamed instantly on Netflix — was not interrupted and nothing fell in my hovel.

I sleep beside my refrigerator. When the 2 a.m. earthquake hit a few weeks ago, I woke up and put my hands on the frig to make sure it didn’t topple over on to me.

I’ve stored about five gallons of water (in jugs in the bathroom) for emergencies.
