EC-Bills Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 linky Felt this one early this morning in Central Illinois. Pretty interesting as I have never experienced one before (I have been through tornados and hurricanes). I was laying awake in bed when I heard a train go by and then things started shaking. My first thought was that was unusual as I have never experienced a train cause that kind rattling. Then I twigged into that it wasn't the train. Also, according to this article, the quake was felt as far away as Niceville, FL which is where I grew up and my folks still live. They slept through it.

udonkey Posted April 18, 2008 Share Posted April 18, 2008 It woke me up this morning at my apartment (Cincinnati) at around 5:30am...bed was shaking and the dresser in my roommate's room next to mine was bumping into the wall. From the local news, we're ~180 miles from the epicenter, and it was still VERY noticeable. Can't imagine how those people in So-Cal deal with this sh-- on a regular basis. Really freaky...definitely never experienced anything like that before, especially waking up to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only question I have is - wtf were you doing up at 4:30 in the morning ? I did not feel it in my deep slumber. A guy in my office was up and having cereal at that ungodly hour.

A guy in my office was up and having cereal at that ungodly hour. I wasn't sleeping well and thus waking up at various points. Happens when I have too much going on in my brain.
