wow everyone is having earthquakes all of a sudden...

Maybe I should take shit off my walls just in case!

 

Least I wasnt the only person to post.. I was looking for data on it. took me a minute..

weird feeling actually cause I knew it wasnt windy outside. But it felt like I went up in the air for a second and back down. Then all the shit was rocking.

 

welcome to the world of earthquakes. i live near the san andreas fault

 

i felt it for a second or two never experienced an earthquake before

 

pfff, amateurs.

When you get knocked down and can't even walk because of the shaking and it lasts for a minute or more, THEN you will have experienced an earthquake.:2thumbsup:


Odd that they would be on the east coast though

 

OK, now I'm seeing it on Fox...wondered if they were full of shit and just saying it to hinder the Obama administration.

It hit NYC and went as far up as RI...almost hit me! :O

 

this would be my second. The first time I was in 9th grade.

 

that link orison put up said a 5.9, that's a pretty good shake. How many miles are you from it in Philli anyway? It said it was only 1 kilometer deep, pretty shallow. Usually deeper ones are felt further away.

 

OK, I did feel the earthquake...

I thought it was my neighbors washer going nuts

A 5.9-magnitude earthquake centred in Virginia rattled the East Coast Tuesday afternoon, shaking buildings in cities as far north Toronto.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was about six kilometres deep, centred northwest of Richmond, in Mineral, Va.
In response to the quake, parts of the Pentagon, the White House and the Capital buildings were evacuated in Washington.
U.S. President Barack Obama is in Martha's Vineyard, Mass. and was reported to have felt the earthquake there.

you mean up here in toronto

 

I didn't feel it in dayton,

 

yeah it's all over the news here in indiana, guess virginia got hit by a 5.9 an' they're expectin' another one soon

 

Not another earthquake...it'd be the aftershock they feel...

 

You may be right I just know the news said somethin' about a bigger one. Wonder why we been gettin' so may quakes this year n' last. Maybe it's been like this before and I'm just too young to remember.

 

Not if the first shake was just a fore-shock. Depends on which one is bigger.
