    Happened in Canada, near Ottawa.


    Tremors were felt for hundreds of miles.

    I felt it here in New York (chair I'm on shook for like 2 minutes), and the Cleveland announcers felt it there.

    right but there are some places that do not usually experience them. it is just more geologically improbable. but they did say this sorta stuff would happen in the last days. not that i believe in that.

    Usually the California posts come during the winter, when someone posts a thread about a brutal snowstorm and all the California posters jump in about how awesome their weather is.

    I felt one in San Mateo back in 2008, this one felt similar to it only a little slower. I am New York right now....just ogt up from typing on SBR forum and thought I was feeling light-headed as it hit. Then realized the ground was shaking a little and saw some mirrors on my dresser start to sway back and forth a little.

    It lasted for about 20 seconds. It was pretty cool.
