Last year, Jamaica was rattled by a major 4.5 earthquake felt across the island at about 7:30 on August 26th. Twitter exploded with memes and comments a few minutes ago with thousands of reports of the tremor. Checks with the earthquake unit of the University of the West Indies confirmed the earthquake.
