Sorry for the spelling error in the title - Admin can you correct? Several minutes ago we were hit with what sounded like a large explosion that felt like our house was rolling. County wide according to scanner. People out in the streets and 1000 calls to the police in a few minutes.

We are 100 miles south west of Chicago. Police calling it an earthquake...

We felt it too.......unbelievable. We totally expected to go outside and find something smashed into our house. All the neighbors were outside, as well! (around 1:15 am) LaSalle County.

From your previous post: Sorry for the spelling error in the title - Admin can you correct?

No apology needed, everyone knows it's difficult to type in an earthquake!!

You know you're sitting on top of one of the largest natural gas reservoirs in the midwest, right? Peoples Gas (among others) pump the stuff into the ground from Urbana-Champaign to Bloomington for storage.
