FFFUUUUUUUUUU east coast quake

It felt big here in NYC. ... heard cracks and stuff in my building. Epicenter was in VA - 5.8 mag.

Anyone in DC who can speak to it?

Already spoken to here:

Apparently they're evacuating the Pentagon. I might walk over there and see if I can see anything, since it's only ten minutes by foot.

I am close to the epicenter, maybe a little closer than DC.

Felt pretty big, my apartment building was clearly shaking. No damage here, though.

I'm about 30 minutes south of Montreal and we felt it. I was actually smoking a joint with my gf and we both turned around at the same time and told each other to stop fidgeting. The house shook enough for a shittily hung painting to fall.

I FOR ONE WELCOME OUR NEW MAYAN OVERLORDS.

How is that even possible?! Virginia is in the middle of a tectonic plate

Any damage? Or was it a small/deep one? (which would explain everything)

People as far away as Southern Kentucky reported they felt it.

Lira, it was a very deep earthquake, especially for it to travel so far with so much force.

Felt it near Philly here.
Thought my neighbor was doing some shit, but then it continued.

Freaky! First noticeable one I've ever been through, as far as I know.

East coast quakes are less violent than Pacific rim ones but travel further because the bedrock is very solid / well-connected.

Yeah, I'm gathering some information about it now. So bizarre, I had no idea you guys could have these earthquakes there, but apparently they're not exactly rare.



I'm going to wait for the news agencies to catch up and tell us if anything collapsed. Earthquakes are so awesome, I hope no one got hurt.

There was one about 100 miles from Louisville a few years ago that was pretty intense, I think it was finally listed to be a 6.2. Woke me up at 5:30 in the morning and the walls were making an incredible 's'-shaped waving motion.

Virginia is classified as a "moderate" seismic risk, and has a 10-20% chance to experience a 4.75 quake every century or so.

I wonder why I didn't feel it. Possible the shock was absorbed by the st. Lawrence river? lol does it even work that way?

i'm right by the beach and my whole building was shaking

I thought someone was joking around shaking the partitians on the cubes...but when i saw my lit rack shake, i knew something was up...


is it wierd i still feel a bit light-headed from it

It only produces 1.79 gigawatts of power, which is about 34.2% of what Jay-Z produces at optimal levels. We'll be fine so long as Linkin Park doesn't show.
