That was unnerving. We just don’t get those around here. I thought something was going horribly wrong.

ROTFLMAO! Mrs p6 called me. She said everyone in their building on Baldwin near Campbells Run Road felt it for about 15-20 seconds. It was longer here. Maybe 10 seconds just light vibration then intensifying so much that the plants on the balcony were moving. Cat ran into the bedroom and hid, LOL!

>>Is there a known fault line in the area..<<

If it was felt in DC, you already know it is called “Bush’s Fault.”

Made me leave my home office in Great Neck, LI.

I was in Haiti ten days after the big one last year and felt a bunch of after shocks....I don't like the feeling one bit.

I didn't feel a thing and yet the Boston news radio is saying it hit Boston. Said window blinds and water coolers rocked back and forth - I did not feel a darned thing!

Is there a known fault line in the area..

Probably just an aftershock from the Charleston quake...

I’m Clayton,NC and my house was shaken, gently. The first time in my life I have ever felt anything like it.

Or in FR slang, God fires a pre-zot kinetic warning over D.C.

If the center was DC, perhaps it was precipitated when a politician told the truth.

If that were the case it was probably the result of hell freezing over.
