Should be concerned about the earthquake?
I was up last night and didn't feel anything. But when I got to work one of my co-workers told me about it. And I'm a little freaked out right now. To the point I want to now leave the country.
I mean it's a good thing nothing was damaged and all. But do you think the big one could follow behind the tremor we had last night?
My knowledge about earthquakes is not that great so any here who knows about them please share your thoughts.
OMG..you should freak out and leave the country !! :D

this was an earthquake in 1998..
What happened in Reading, PA in 1994?
The mild quake we got last night was on an even smaller scale than that.
I'm from Pennsylvania,US. We don't have natural disasters or anything. No earthquakes, no tornadoes. We get lots of snow during the winter and tropical storms during summer but that's about it.
yes folks i did feel it too. i could not understand it initially. felt like rhythmic rocking. i thought it was my heartbeat. only after reading the posts did i know that it was true indeed.
Go Run, Lets see how far you can do so ( Drama Queen in the making )
fluffy123 it was a very mild one, which country are you from?
I am interested to know the name of the country which is fully secure from natural disasters.
....
Lol.. Those were some road works then if they produced vibrations all around Qatar.. Lol
bodda since it happened at night at 11:30 on a weekday when majority of the population is already sleeping, I don't expect too many people to.. Argh why I am I bothered.. Yes bodda it was a rumour and thanks to your brilliant mind we got this issue sorted out.
no drama, eh? that's so believable coming from you!
It's strange , as I know there is no earthquake in the qatar vocabulary but it happened. it's possible that this will happen again anytime here. I hope qatar is ready if higher magnitude earthquake occur in the future.
bodda, can the drama!
u so scared fluffy???? if u r to die, u can even die in a plane crash bck home, as thy also happen.... it was just a wave tht came due to the intensity of earthquake that hit pakistan...
inshAllah every thing will b ok as it is rite now :)
...be terrified about the tsunamis...
It's no big deal.
lool ...
Bodda I felt it and a lot of my friends felt it. First we thought we are hallucinating but in fact it was True. There is works near my house or anything. It lasted few seconds
Yes I felt it, it was for 3 - 5 seconds only and I burst in laugh when I felt it. It's nothing serious. I felt it becasue I live on an upper level floor and only those who felt it live on upper levels. Don;t leave the country for such a small issue. Its not a big deal...
Cheers
Relax the earthquake happened in pakistan ... it was felt in India and up to Dubai not here... i have read people talking about it but no ... dont worry about it ... this isnt a country with earthquakes ...
Afterall not knowing if you are from the UK but there was one there too a few weeks ago ... people didnt leave because of that ... it wasnt as big but these things are part of the earths movement ....
it didnt get to Qatar attt alll .... the aftershocks they are mentioning will be in the same location as the initial and we havent heard of them as such yet....
dont worry they were probably pulling your leg as they knew how you would react xx
