5.8 Earthquake in Virginia

[LiNuX]

About 10 minutes ago, a 5.8 Magnitude Earthquake occurred around the Virginia and Washington DC. Not many news reports out on it yet.

But I felt it and I live in NYC. My aquarium actually spilled some water because the water was swaying back and forth so much. At first I thought I was getting dizzy because my chair was moving back and forth. And then when I stood up, it was still there. Didn't last very long though.

Anyone else feel that? I have someone in North Carolina and Upstate NY tell me they felt it.

Let's hope that it didn't cause too much damage at the epicentre and the surrounding area!

I live to far away to feel it (Oregon). But some people over here at the office just started talking about it. Hopefully everyone is alright. We will have to wait to hear more I guess.

Spilled my maple syrup all over my moose-pelt, beaver-fur-lined hockey stick covers


Serious though, gonna look into this. Hope no one and nobody was seriously injured in this. Seems like there's a lot more earthquakes and other natural disasters occurring lately.

I didn't feel anything either (Western NY) but people in the area did. The office my mother works at was actually evacuated for a short time because of it.
