I had just got home from the Bingo hall in Wasilla when it hit, you had a strong rolling jolt and then a boat like sway for 30 seconds, actually made me queasy. No damage that i could see then, will check later on.
I was in a 7.5 in Mexico City in 1957. Coming home at 1 am from a party I started to stagger. But I only had one drink I told my friend from California. He grabbed my hand and yelled “earthquake”. We ran down the intersection and stood in the middle of the street away from the 3 story buildings and overhead wires which were flapping wildly along with the poles that were leaning from side to side. It was like a fast moving subway train and we held each other to keep from falling about 1 1/2 minutes. When I got home all the tall jars of plants had fallen over, the maid was curled up in a bundle of laundry under the dining table, and my apartment mate said she ran out of her room because it looked like a palm tree was headed for her window, and the chandelier in the dining room was hitting the ceiling and then swinging to hit the other side back and forth.
I was also inside the DC beltway during the 5.8 in Mineral, Virginia. Sitting on the bed it began to quiver and the wall opposite me was shuddering for about 15 seconds. Paid someone $200 to repair some chimney cracks. Good luck all and hope this was the main one, not a foreshock.
