This could have been a dream but was in fact real.
My daughter and I were watching the last 25 minutes of The Walking Dead tonight when all of a sudden the power goes off. The entire neighborhood. The stars were bright , the moon was coming up and that was about all of the light we could see. I immediately began to think about the NDC and power outage forecasts. Well, no sooner had I lit candle number 3 ( around 12 minutes after the power went out) when the house shook, a nice little shake. It was an earthquake. A 4.1 followed a short while later with a 4.0. Both felt and felt with no power. This was followed by the coyotes deciding to go wild. I am not sure if they decided to go after a rabbit or it was because of the quake. My teenage daughter was not amused, though I think she was just as bothered by the fact that we couldn't finished The Walking Dead. Well, the power is back on after being out for 2 hours, I am recording the rebroadcast and all is quiet.
We don't get earthquakes in Phoenix. First one I felt since moving here over 20 years ago. I did feel the HUGE Northridge quake. This one tonight was like the difference between a sprinkle of rain and a hurricane.
So, for a moment tonight, I had to wonder if I was experiencing a bunch of NDC overlaps all by myself. haha
Note to self, the 6 flashing lights we USED to have apparently have disappeared or are without batteries. MUST GET NEW BATTERIES AND LIGHTS.
