We just had after-quake tremors. My whole house was shaking, lamps were swinging.

We had them here too in upper New York. I am in my office and my chair, desk and computer were shaking. We all met in the hall asking each other if that was an earthquake.

I'm in Maryland and it was a pretty good shake-up. That's enough earthquake for me!!!

Wow it hit here in the shenandoah valley of Va. I guess it did anyways. lol.. i was asleep and the neighbor girl was beating on the door and then the phone starting ringing. lol.

It centered in Mineral Va and they are saying it was felt as far as NY.

I always sleep thru all the good stuff. lol..

I'm watching the D.C. news right now. A couple of spires on the National Cathedral are damaged.

My house was shaking and there was a noise like it was being bulldozed! I actually went outside after it was over to see if someone was using heavy machinery in the area!
