“5.3? Can people feel that?”

Oh yeah....they sure can. I live about 4 to 5 hours drive south of Mineral, Virginia where there was a 5.8 earthquake about 2 years ago. It shook my entire house for about 20 seconds or so (kind of in “waves” for lack of a better explanation). My son came out of his room and said what is that? I had never felt an earthquake but was sure that’s what is was and told him so. Sure enough. It was.

Oh most certainly. Couple things though is that 5.4 is quite large for a volcanic quake. Reports are coming in with rock slides and such but the meaning in regards to the volcanics on this Island is the more important issue.
