Yes, I did hear about the earthquake. Thankfully, it was minor.

It was too far north of me to feel anything.

Good thing it wasn't very major. Glad you are okay Stephanie. That is the first thing I thought about when I saw this topic. :)

Thanks! :D

There was one back in the early 1990's that was centered in Southern New Jersey - I felt that one because I was pretty close to the epicenter. I originally thought it was a truck rumbling through the industrial center that my office was at. To my surprise when I looked up and out the window, there was nothing! :o I had this weird feeling when I asked out loud "What was THAT?". Everyone was just kind of looking around at each other, trying to figure it out. I heard on the radio on the way home from work that it was an earthquake!

Glad you're ok, Steph! The last few that we've
had, here, were at night. I guess I couldn't
hear or feel anything over my tired snoring...:D

That wasn't an earthquake, we were moving furniture.

I don't think there has ever been a "major" earthquake in New Jersey, at least in the last century. :)
