What did it feel like? Was it weak? I've never experienced an earthquake but it scares me.
I didn't feel much & though upstairs had dropped or knocked something over lol. I didn't realise it was an earthquake until I saw it on Facebook Everyone on there is going mad, saying everything was shaking, but I only felt like a vibration & heard loud bangs...
This one happened on Tuesday, January 12 at 9:34 am and was a white 2015 Sport sedan. It was number 202. After such a good December (10 Accords!) January has gotten off to a slow start, but it's getting somewhere now.

We get quite a few here, usually small though...
I wanted to live in Charleston, SC until I learned that it has a high earthquake risk. There were 60 fatalities caused by the 1886 Charleston earthquake which was a 7.3 magnitude.
I remember the 5.8 Virginia earthquake in 2011. It caused the apartment building I lived in (NYC) to sway back and forth, it was over by the time I realized what was going on. Caused a few cracks in the walls.

Were you living in Virginia at the time, or did you feel it in NYC?

Felt it in NYC, and then a few days later we had Hurricane Irene.
