5.4 on the richter scale

[ggiese]

USGS reports a 5.4 earthquake down in about the middle of VA today. We felt it here at the office, and the wife called up to report feeling it at home.

Work with me here, feeling an earthquake on the east coast is "news" worthy.

Any other atlantic peeps experience it?

ETA: Apparently, it was a 5.8

The wife and I (in two different locations in the northern suburbs of Chicago) felt a "rumble". Not sure if it's related, but it was at about the time the eartquake was reported in VA.

...or it could have been thunder.
