Magnitude 5.8. Biggest earthquake in Maryland in a while

They said it was felt as far west as Chicago, as far north as Quebec, and as far south as Atlanta.
Did anyone else feel it???

I was on the 3rd floor of a 3 story office building in North Carolina today and the pictures shook off the desks. It was an interesting sensation and experience.

My home is about 37 miles from the epicenter in Virginia. I was en route to work in my car and felt nothing. But everyone at home sure did. Knocked a few things off the shelves. Not near like the quake I experienced near San Francisco in 1989 while in the Navy. THAT was a Quake! Aftershocks lasted all night long as strong as the single quake experienced today.
