My dad in pittsburgh apparently didn't feel anything.

My friend in Pittsburg didn't feel anything either.... maybe it missed?

The library I was in felt like it got hit by a car, so no it didn't miss.

Lol, that's weird then.

The earthquake is making me wish I hadn't taught my mother how to text. She is freaking out so bad lol

"ARE YOU ALIVE?!"

Yeah, I'm fine.

"ARE YOU SURE???"

No, Mom... I'm dead, this is just me as a ghost messing with you.

Grand Rapids, Family in Mount Pleasant didn't feel anything, shits crazy XD.
Didn't feel anything here in Shelby Township. (If my room's a mess when I get home, then I know I missed out by going to work =<)


haha yeah, I hope my dog didn't do anything crazy while she's home alone. 15 yr old Husky. She probably slept through it!

Shelby's a nice area, wish i had more reasons to go to that side of the state.

In Newport News, VA and it felt so weird. Walls swayed, stuff on shelve shoot. To be honest I didnt think anything of it. But then how often does VA get a decent earthquake. This is being reported as the strongest earthquake to hit VA. Pretty Amazing..

What makes things better is that we have Irene to worry bout this weekend.

Yeah...The way friends in the North East and people on here are describing it, I assumed it would be worse. Seems like a whole lot of nothing.

HOLD ME, URI! There might be another 2.8 one in TX!!!

5.8 is a "Big Deal" on the East Coast? Out here (California) we don't get uppity over anything smaller than a 7.1.

Well of course, that's Cali, you guys are all living on the edge (pun intended). But NYC - especially the incredibly cramped Manhattan area - isn't prepared for any quake more severe than what happened today. The west coast knew about the fault line and planned your infrastructure accordingly; the east coast is all "WTF mate?"

I don't think there's any real damage [other than that poor chair] it just shook a lot of people up.

The stuff with the cell phones is congestion. Verizon and AT&T said nothing was damaged. Give it awhile.
