grace'smom Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Hey, we're not used to earthquakes here (VA)... Once it happens, that's it right? It doesn't get worse after the first one- the aftershocks are always less intense? Just checking... Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicMama Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 We live in NE atlanta, I felt the house vibrating. DH and I were weirded out. We NEVER get quakes here, but the thought did cross my mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanceXToo Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Felt it in PA Oh my, is THAT what that was?! My son was playing outside with his cousins on the side of the house, and all of a sudden, the house sort of started shaking- water sloshing around in fishtank, feeling like I was shaking around a bit in my computer chair. I got up to go yell at the kids because I thought they were doing something...pushing against the side of the house, I don't know! Found them in the backyard just talking to the next door neighbor girl, they weren't doing anything to the house. My daughter was just sitting at the table with her friend coloring, said they hadn't moved. It only lasted a few seconds. I'm in PA, too. Crazy!
