About 1:40pm today the quake that hit Quebec-Ontario area was felt in Ohio at a 5.5 magnitude.
I didn't feel it myself. I must have been in my car.
Did any of you in Ohio or elsewhere feel it?
If so, what were you doing when it hit?

Yipee! Free foot massage! But that's just a Southern Californian talking. You would barely notice a 5.5. Just a little shimmy.

I felt it for sure! I live 60 miles from Niagara Falls. It rattled the house for a few seconds and I thought "hmmm. I wonder what that was. I'll bet that's what an earthquake feels like!" Kinda felt like a train went by real close to the house but without any noise.

Wow! Didn't even hear about it! Haven't watched the news. At that time we were in the house with kids running everywhere. Ohio doesn't get much of that!
