Anyone else out here on the East Coast feel that?

Pretty strong for 'round these parts.

EDIT: Looks like it was a 5.9 magnitude quake in Central Virgina. Anyone on here from down that way? We felt it pretty well up here in Northern Jersey, so it was probably a bit crazier down there.

Nothing crazy at my work, just some vibration and a little rattling. SweetMelissa back on the home front said that the entire house was shaking and that all of the pictures on the walls were swaying like pendulums.

I'm so used to this building shaking from the trucks driving in and out of the loading bay downstairs that it didn't even register with me until I got the phone call from home asking me if I felt it, too.

We felt it in Plymouth, MA. It was felt all the way up to Boston.

From what I read, an earthquake on this side of the country can be felt pretty far due to how our ground is made up.

My first Earthquake and I felt it in MA, not CA!! Go figure!

Nothing in the hills of Worcester, but Donna felt it in Cranston, RI.

Now we can start tracking the hurricane for this weekend.
