Nope, Didn't feel a thing and didn't hear about it til an hour or so later. The 11 pm news was all I got about it. Looks like the beach areas got it harder than inland areas.

Not as good as the one in Chino last November (I was on the 2nd floor at work for that one), but second one where I felt the waves/vibrations from the ground and knew it was going to hit. A good roller.

Chad--it needs to be experienced at least once in a lifetime!

After you get to feel a quake in cal. you can come to Fl. or one of the gulf states to try out a hurricane then off to the midwest for a twister

Grew up back east, have done floods, hurricanes, and Tornadoes. I have gotten used to earthquakes, but when you start to shake... you never know if that is it, or it is going to get alot worse! Todd (Uma)

Funny thing is we had a little mini hurricane blow through this part of Ohio, destroyed this whole area. I worked 6 days a week for like 2 months jus hanging new cable lines.

Oh yahhhh, we felt it big time. It was a stealthy one - thought it was over and then it went around again...

I agree.... I'd really like to just experience one once. Not a major one of course! I know we had one in Michigan about 10 years ago, but of course it was one you could barely feel.
