Kind of crazy, I felt it all the way in the suburbs outside of NYC. I was sitting in the Charger and it just rattled the whole vehicle.

What are the odds the effects could be felt in Raleigh? Out of no where a few minutes ago, my house shook for a couple seconds violently.

Assumed it was a rogue squall or something.

You're in Raleigh too? I don't think I've ever felt an earthquake before. I was confused at first.

Heh, I've experienced a few quakes (although minor, like 4.3 thereabout) here in JA. It's really a huge WTF moment when everything around you suddenly starts shaking. Hope all you guys are ok though.

Hm, i didn't feel scared. It was more of a 'The helll is happening?' moment.

2ndWonder

Same here. I had no idea what was going on at the time. :|

Me to wasn't until my mother came out yelling earth quake and I've been through one when I was visiting my sister in California but I was closer to that one so more shaking and lasted alot longer hope the next one big enough to feel hits while I'm in a body of water so I can see the vibrations by the time I filled up a glass to see how it would move I was over :(

Now that I think about it, now that the earthquake has come and gone (hopefully no after shocks) now we will have to try to survive the hurricane :P. I remember the weather saying it could be a 4 by the time it hits land.

Well I guess that for places that are not used to earthquakes infrastructure is not prepared for that. That's why a 5.7 can be a big deal.

Most places here weren't made with an earthquake in mind. The smallest earthquake can do a lot of damage here. In states such Cali they have certain building codes they follow, here in NJ those codes are not nearly as strict in some aspects.
