No news on WSB so I figured it was just a train.

I’m assuming it might reflect where the sensors are located?

We have so many alerts on so many things that the phone won’t shut up most of the time, but not that. Funny they would use WC as a reference (same with the person who texted us) and not WS.

I wonder if the small earthquake could have jarred it…

It was at 10:50 PM. I assumed you heard otherwise I would have texted!

There was a noise that sounded like something heavy hitting the ground, then the glass in our china cabinet rattled briefly. We thought it was an earthquake but when we checked online sources we couldn’t find anything.
