Longer than before, and the two chains on the ceiling fan moved this time, enough to be noticeable. I think the 5′ little blind is moving a little this time, which is the first time since March 2020 in Magna, Utah, about 15 miles from me. Thanks.

What is intensity and the Mercalli intensity scale? The amount of shaking that occurs on the surface due to an earthquake is called the intensity. It is usually measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (imperceptible) to 10 (severe shaking), and is given in Roman numerals such as I, II,…IX, X, and is often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red. The intensity of an earthquake depends mainly on the size and depth of the earthquake as well as the distance from the epicenter: the farther away, the less intense the shaking.
