2013 Oklahoma Earthquake Discussion

[Jesseda]

Jesseda, would you mind sharing some particulars, eg, deductibles and coverage limits?

When I checked into this a year or two ago, the coverage max was something ridiculously low, like $10K, which is barely better than nothing at all. Perhaps I was mistaken or misunderstood in some way.

Thanks.

I just got of the phone with my insurance agent to make sure I am telling you correctly, he told me it covers the value of my home and I have a 5% deductible which the 5 % is high to me because my deductible for the tornado was really low when the tornado took my house in May I think my deductible was $750 for that event, but hey I will take only paying 5% then not have the coverage at all, he told me its a higher deductible for earthquake related events

Okay, that seems more reasonable - full coverage, 5% deductible

What company are you with?

I saw a USGS vehicle parked off of MacArthur Avenue this mid morning at the turn off for Canal Road which jogs NE toward Lake Hefner. I wonder what they were doing over there...

Holy Crap! That was kinda big just now. My heart is racing.

Felt in the Quail Creek area.

It actually just woke me up.

Ditto.................

I just felt it. It seemed pretty loud too (just with the way the house was shuddering). I felt a hard shake about 5 minutes ago and then some weak vibrations since. I'm just south of Mercy hospital.

I have been piddling on computer since about 4. Not felt a thing down here, except when I spilled some soup on me at 6ish. Definitely felt that.

[OKCisOK4me]

I slept sound last night.

[Praedura]

Just felt a pretty good one, about 25 minutes ago.

I felt the 4:30ish one around NW 63rd and Penn. I actually heard it as much as anything, at least that's what it seemed like. Woke me up - straight up!

Didn't feel last night at 122nd & MacArthur nor today at NW 23rd & Meridian.

Let's get another 5 pluser. I'm sure this board will light up then...

[Praedura]

Just felt another one.

[ctchandler]

I did as well, of course, I'm in the thick of the epicenter(s), I live near the Turner Turnpike, Air Depot, and 122nd area.

With a 5 pluser I doubt anyone wants to take a chance with the bricks shaking off the house or chimney falling through the roof.

Actually 6, as they've included one for 7:04 this morning.

I felt a second one today at 10:31 -- still waiting for OGS to post an entry for that one. That would make it 7.

Looking at the seismograph, it might be closer to 8 but I was just going off what they included when I copied that over.

Minor earthquake - Edmond, Oklahoma on November 2, 2013

It'll be interesting if this follows the previous trend of getting a few of these decent 3.0-3.9 quakes close together and then 12 hours or so later, get the 4.5+ quake followed by a couple more 3.0+ quakes.

We shall see.
