        Lived in NYC my whole life. Moved to Staten Island and, unknowingly, moved under a military flight path. First time they flew a trio of Ospreys low over my neighborhood and my house was shaking, there was a level of “not again” panic that you just can’t explain fully.

      Likewise, at first I assumed construction or big truck, but as it lasted my list of “what ifs” was a bit frightening. Took a minute before earthquake even crossed my mind.
