Felt it here in Front Royal, VA.  Latest is it was a 5.9, centered between Richmond and Charlottesville.  I pray all is well down that way.  - Cliff

We were shaken pretty good in Northern Virginia.  My dog started barking about 15 seconds before it hit.  I feel kinda bad for yelling at him.

You know you have a great call when an earthquake hits and they start yelping on the shelf! Ralph Snodgrass's long box never sounded better!

The 2011 Earthquake. Through DC and the East Coast? That's the Congress Fault!

I spoke with a guy in Charlottesville after it happened and he told me it shook for close to 45 seconds.  They had enough time to get over the shock, figure out what it was, decide to walk outside, and then walk outdoors.

I was in the store & a roll of paper towels fell off the shelf when the quake hit. Hope no one was hurt or any damage was done.
