Not something I'm used to in my part of the country.

yep. i live in KY and it woke me up for a slipt second because i heard clinking. i thought i was dreaming. at about 4:30 i heard my mom and aunts voice and they said the earth quake had woken them up. that was the last thing i excepted it to be.

AB · 04-18-2008, 03:52 PM

Wow! I bet that really startled you!

Chelsea · 04-18-2008, 05:06 PM

Apparently it was felt as far as here (Lexington, KY) - didn't wake me up, but apparently I'm the only one.

Stormtracker TF · 04-18-2008, 05:40 PM

Wow, that's crazy. I remember about 10 years ago we felt one here, one of the strangest experiences ever.

Interesting that it happened on the anniversary of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake (5:18 AM).

One of the ladies at my mom's work noticed, she was in bed and the knobs on her dresser were rattling. I didn't feel anything though.

crystaldawn · 04-18-2008, 07:12 PM

It was only about 50 miles from me. Woke my husband up but I slept through it and didn't even feel any of the aftershocks...

Janice · 04-18-2008, 07:17 PM

I'd panic. I can't even imagine those poor people that are in the huge earthquakes. Just the thought of the ground opening up is terrifying.

Dr. John Becker · 04-18-2008, 09:06 PM

I found some cool video of a local newscast that was going on during the quake.

That's neat. Thanks for posting. They kept their cool. I'd hide under the anchor desk, lol.

Apparently some people here in NE Ohio felt it, but I didn't.
