    We felt it east of Philadelphia. I heard an extremely low pitched rumbling like a big truck was driving by but it was lower than usual so I looked out the window to see what it was. I didn't notice any shaking but my son said some glasses were banging together. I know someone who lives in a high rise in northern NJ and their whole building shook for a while.

    It sounded like and felt like an equipment trailer dragging a loose piece of equipment.
    Then the texts and info poured in.
    An old friend is currently working on Ellis island. I jokingly told him to watch out for a tsunami ����
    NYC could sure use one.

    Yeah. A couple of the neighbors mad me mad so I told them I was going to take away the sun.

    I lived in AK for 32 years and earthquakes were just about a daily occurrence. Most were not noticeable but every once in a while they were real thumpers. So far I haven't heard of any deaths or real damage. Much ado about nothing.

    I’d rather sit through a 5 magnitude earthquake than an F5 tornado but preferably neither!

    As of now we have had 11 aftershocks mostly between M1.6-M2.0 but at about 6pm we got a M4.0.

    It's a little surprising they don't have more.
    The chain of mountains going down the East Coast- in the scheme of things, isn't that old,
    and they were pushed up from the land under the East coast states moving West.
    Maybe they aren't done moving West quite yet.

    I was working on the second floor of a townhouse here on Long Island. It shook the place pretty good as china & glasses were rattling around. IIRC we had a similar one back around 2010.

    Yea I was at work then at lunch taking a power nap on floor (bad back). I didn't really feel it but everyone came running to my office. Figures it was the one day I forgot my cell phone. Kids yelled at me as they couldn't see if I was ok.

    Funny that people in Delaware had stuff moving around and I am in NJ just a bit North-east of Philadelphia and I felt nothing. I was inside working on my computer and the ground is saturated from constant rain so I should have felt something. The previous one I definitely felt, I was in a paint store picking up paint for work and as I was signing the receipt the table started moving and I thought the guys behind it were screwing with me. Then I saw all the stuff hanging on the walls moving, looked outside and my van was doing a dance in the street!
