I thought the office building was going to fall down on top of me. It really got my animal survival instincts fired up, damn near ran out the back door once I realized it wasn't just a bunch of people upstairs moving furniture.

its because nc is the best state

also on topic, i'm sad that i missed it ; ;

I wasn't aware that so many folks on here lived in North Carolina, either.

Represent!

Edit: the people near us that say they felt it live out towards Gastonia. Makes sense (I guess) since that's closer to the mountains.

In 28 years in NJ this is only the second I can even remember making its way all the way up here so yes, east coast earthquakes are a little more wtf than cali getting hit by yet another earthquake. Was a pretty strong after shock for so far away (virginia vs jersey shore), set off car alarms and now none of my cellphones work, thnx for the free hour of no work phone calls virginia :x

At first the ac kicked on in my house. I thought it was just a rough start, but when it got worse in matter of seconds, my eyes got really big and I went, "What the *** is going on?!" Power flickered here, dogs went nuts, things were rattling, it was rather unsettling until it stopped. ; ;

Jeffrey Halka of the American Geological Survey told 11 News that even though earthquakes are relatively low-magnitude on the East Coast as compared to California, they're generally felt over long distances.

He said there could be some aftershocks, probably of a lower magnitude.
Fun times...
