The earthquake hit at exactly 3:34 a.m. It began slowly, like any other time the ground shakes (we get plenty of small earthquakes every other week or two). However, after about 15 seconds, it got stronger, and then considerably stronger, to the point where we couldn’t keep our balance. I heard four explosions and heard several structures collapsing. The main fear by most was that it was such a long earthquake that appeared as if it would never end.By: Diego Herrera, Duluth News Tribune
