Heartquake
heartquake in north Italy so strong that it awakens me and my home was all shaking for what seemed a long time. I'm fine, my mother is fine and the home is fine.
It was 111 km from where I live:
scary to see how near it was, but I hope that was not a inhabitated zone. Ferrara is quite an old city, hope they didn't have too much damages.
ETA: more or less all medieval towers and churches around there went down: Finale Ligure (tower), Levizzano (tower), Mirandola (cathedral), Poggio Renatico (tower). Some historical palaces. The more damage to people unfortunately are to those factory that were doing the night shift.

I think earthquakes are far more scary than hurricanes. With hurricanes you get a warning well in advance. With earthquakes you don't get any warning at all.
