I thought I was dreaming. Turns out it was real.

I was half asleep and I felt my bed moving.

Woke me up with the light fixtures swaying and the house popping. Thought it was really loud thunder and took me a minute to figure out what was happening. The water in our pool was churning!

Oklahoma just ordered 35 disposal wells shut down in a 500 mi radius around the epicenter.

when I lived in Stillwater and OKC there was a small earthquake almost every day at 7:30am. I assume that was when the day shift started pumping.

It was barely 4 miles deep, definitely an injection well induced quake.

4.5 KM... less than 3 miles deep

either way it was a pretty shallow earthquake and 100% preventable.

It woke my arse up this morning. I'm in Omaha and my apartment building felt like it was shaking pretty good. Never experienced anything like that before
