Did You Feel The Earthquake
« on: November 10, 2012, 02:26:28 PM »
I was sitting at my desk working this afternoon and I felt a little shaking. I was wondering if it was an earthquake as I could definitely feel it. Sure enough the news is reporting an earthquake in Southern Kentucky.

http://news.msn.com/us/kentucky-shaken-by-43-earthquake/

It first felt like shaking, (the P wave most likely) and then I definite swaying (the S wave) they were separated by a few seconds. I would not have felt it except it was very quite and I did not have the radio on at the time. If I had been walking or talking I don't think I would have felt it. Where I was at it was very light.

I know I'm going to be accused of earthquake snobbery but....

Out here, anything less than a 5 doesn't even make the local news!
