Yep, We felt it pretty good way up here in NH. The upper floor of our office structure was moving pretty good and we could watch the windows flex.

Felt it at work in Lehighton, PA.  Thought someone was trying to rock my service van. Only mild only lasted a few seconds.  Later heard it was a earthquake in Virginia.   was wondering how Hawkin50 and others fared.  Good to know your all OK

Was at Charlotte  today and felt it pretty good.  Was in a meeting on the 3rd floor and felt like the building was swaying.  It was pretty unnerving things like that don't usually happen here in Carolina.  pnic pnic
