Merriman Road; 2:00 PM
Ira Himmelstein, financial secretary at Temple Israel, reports that the synagogue is frantically making preparations to accommodate the needs of victims of this afternoon’s mild earthquake. “We expect as many as a dozen extra visitors to the Rock Shabbat Committee Meeting tomorrow evening. We might have to move out of the library and welcome our terrified neighbors in the [Gedaliah Gertz] Education Center”.
Across the street, the Baho Convenience Mart reported a 10% increase in early afternoon liquor sales, but notes that this might have to do with Lebron drama, and “not the earthquake so much”.
