On the morning of November 30, 2018, the morning show crew was winding down from the newscast. Then, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake hit at 8:29 a.m. Everyone evacuated the building until it was safe to go back in and then coverage began.

Channel 11 carried continuous coverage online and on Channel 11 throughout the day giving critical information on road damage, schools and on aftershocks.

    My cousin, High School Principal Brian Mitchell, had the students from the damaged Jr. High School next door, in his High School for about a year until their building was replaced. It was quite an experience for him and his staff.

    That first bit when the quake starts was intense, you could see and hear the building just fall apart
