I'm in Burlington City and we got it too. That was crazy

Only thing I can find online is a 5.8 that was centered somewhere in Virginia

Blackbirdws6 08-23-2011 01:05 PM

4th floor here....not budging from my desk. Felt pretty odd and its the first one I've ever been in. Reports say it was from Virginia.

5.9 centered in Central VA.

I was in the gym in the other building and all of us in there didn't feel a thing. I walked out and everybody was outside on the phone and I had no idea why.

WS6_CAIT 08-23-2011 01:28 PM

I was at a restaurant and everything was shaking and everyone was looking around all confused. Then i came back to work and the building was evacuated... I have a headache from it now!

band77one 08-23-2011 01:43 PM

i was about to go wash the iroc. i think its a sign i shouldnt go near it today.

Jersey Mike 08-23-2011 02:18 PM

Exactly what time did this happen? I didn't feel a damn thing, so I'm wondering why that is.

MarshallWS6 08-23-2011 03:54 PM

Thought the guys on the desk next to me were shaking things, and then thought something fell into the wall next door.

Was pretty cool.

Tru2Chevy 08-23-2011 03:57 PM

Here's the USGS info on it: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquak...se082311a.html

I was outside taking apart the Jeep, never felt a thing :shrug:

I was standing in the shop at work next to one of our bigger boom trucks. It started shaking like someone was jumping on the back corner and I thought to myself "theres no way someone can make it shake that bad!"

So I walked around the truck, no one was there and it kept swaying for a few more seconds. I thought it was kinda cool.

Lt1_8U 08-23-2011 04:13 PM
