My prayers and thoughts are with you and your friends and family.
I have never experienced a quake like that, or this one, mostly likely a 5 or so, and far from the epicenter. "Scary" is one word that just doesn't cut it. It was existentially terrifying. The ground seemed to leap up a full foot. No where to go, no hiding from it.
It's good that some civic-minded people kept their eyes on being prepared, rather than being prepared to profit.
Best of luck to all, and I hope anyone trapped will soon be freed.
