Only me Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 We had a 4.2 earthquake around 4 am. We very rarely have earthquakes in Illinois so it was pretty scary. The whole house shook and at first we had no idea what was going on. The epicenter was about 20 miles away so I guess we were pretty close.

Alison in KY Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Where was the epicenter. Dh mentioned that our computer woke him up around 4, but I wonder if it was this quake? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiobrain Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I remember one when I was about 12 or 13. That was in Chicago. I will ask my dad about it when I talk to him today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiana Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Holy Cow! I wondered what in the world that was! I woke up and I thought a semi had rammed into our building! But then I went outside to look for it and it wasn't there ... so I wondered what it was for a few minutes and went back to sleep. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
