Why nothing spectacular happened yesterday

No, nothing happened yesterday, eschatologically speaking.  No Rapture.  No demons being belched from the ground.  No Great Tribulation - although, to be sure, those events are coming.

Nothing happened yesterday because...(drum roll)...Scripture said it wouldn't.

Consider.  Matthew 24:36 reads thusly -

"No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."

Now.  All the predictions that Christ would come back and take His church yesterday had to be bogus - because it would have been too easy to predict.  God has a strange way of taking our boasting and throwing it back in our faces.  For Him to say that no man knows the hour, then have a bevy of pundits and quasi-pundits correctly predict the next great event on the Judeo-Christian calendar...

You get the idea.

So don't be surprised about yesterday being just a boring, humdrum day.  You could have taken that to the bank.
