USGS is reporting a 5.8 - that’s a big quake for the East Coast.

Was just working on a song while sitting on the floor with my acoustic 12-string and felt the shaking here in western Maryland. After 30 years in California, this is a piece of cake.

I’m in Annapolis and felt it too. It was as strong as anything I ever experienced in the Seattle area. Lasted about 25 seconds and felt fairly dramatic. I’m guessing 4.5 on the Richter scale.
