Summary
A magnitude 5.1 earthquake rattled the Texas Panhandle near Miami early Thursday morning, felt as far away as Amarillo — no small tremor, just raw tectonic energy. Earthquakes happen when plates grind, build stress, then release — but scientists can’t predict when or where they’ll strike. Thanks to better tech, we’re spotting more quakes, not because they’re happening more, but because we’re detecting them better. With more people and buildings in quake-prone zones, risk is rising. When it hits? Drop, cover, and hold on — simple moves that could save your life. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
