Earthquake Felt in NC
Vanity ^ | 6/9/2020 | pgyanke

Just woke up to an earthquake in Raleigh, NC. My Earthquake3D app says it was a 5.1 magnitude near Sparta. Friends on Facebook reporting it from mountains to sea.

No news on it yet... so here you go!

Hi, jony.

My daughter in Apex was on the porch having her coffee. She felt it, but says it was not nearly as impressive as the 7 she experienced in Seattle ten years ago.

That’s a significant shake. I hope all is well with you, your family, and town.

LOL yeah- slept right through it. Did the same back in 2011 or 12. I was installing H2O Meters driving around. All the years in Texas and never had any there even though there’s The New Madrid fault line.

We’re fine, thank you. Just a bit of a jiggle here.

I lived as a kid in the 60’s an hour north of LA.

A 5.1 barely woke us up! lol

Got knocked off my bike riding down the street during one once.

NC had a hurricane landfall, a deadly tornado outbreak, and the state’s strongest earthquake in over 100 years, all within 5 days.
