Rodrigo Matos, a resident of the city, was having coffee with his family when the tremor startled him. “We were together, drinking coffee, when he shuddered. We looked at each other and asked if everyone felt the same. What a strange feeling. In the neighboring house, the statues beat each other for two or three months,” he says.
In São Miguel das Matas the tremor was also intense. Resident Jadson Penine says the ground started shaking at least three times. “The first was at 7:40 am, it was very strong, it shook the house.

The shaking was even more intense in Santo Antônio de Jesus. A neighbor of the municipality, Manoel Souza, 53, says he was lying in bed when he felt the floor shake.

I looked out the window and saw that there was nothing on the street, it was very strange, there was a neighbor who was running, desperate. I never got through it, it’s a very strange feeling. I heard that it happened in Ilhéus and Itabuna as well ”, he says. The municipalities of southern cities have not confirmed the earthquake and are investigating the situation.
In São Félix, Sunday morning was also harrowing. Cultural producer Carine Araújo was in the bathroom when she heard the screams of her daughter, who woke up scared by the shaking. “I didn’t even believe it was that, because I live near the train line, so it often happens that the train fits in and we felt some tremors. The fact is that my daughter woke up scared, holding the bed as if she were going to fall “I had already got up, was in the bathroom, woke up crying. I went to look at the groups, everyone asked if anyone had common sense. My cousin from Muritiba, my friends from Cachoeira felt it,” he explains.
The shock in São Miguel das Matas was registered by the USP Seismology Center in São Paulo. The rest still do not count in the country’s observatories.
