I just felt a little earthquake. Did anyone else feel it? I was laying on the couch watching TV and I some of my stuff starting rocking back and forth, and I looked at the dog's water bowl and you could see the water swaying in it.

I missed it here, but a buddy posted on FB that he felt it close by. I heard some rumbling while I was outside by just figured it was the airport.

OK, just talked to the wife and she said the she could feel the chair shaking. Guess I missed it when I was working.

that's what that was it felt like a big truck was passing by. it had my floors bouncing.
Same here in Charlotte, I was like WTF is that. Crazy, just a bit ago. I went outside, thought it was a truck also. My house was rumbling and shaking, not really bad but freakily odd.

I am in Concord and didn't feel a thing.

It has been a long time since I have felt the earth move...

It shook my house pretty hard in Mebane too. LOL.. freaked the kids out! I felt one in Washington State a long time ago, but like everyone else said you just don't expect to feel one here.

My two teenagers have Verizon phones and they were doubly freaked out that they didn't have any service. It's odd to think that they have ZERO concept of what it was like before cellular phones.
