Anyone Else Feel The Quake?

[Leviathan]

Just wondered if anyone else besides me was awake at 3:55a.m. and felt the 4.5 quake that hit.

I was online and all of a sudden the whole house started shaking for about 10-15 seconds. Got to admit it was a bit freaky till I found out what it was.

It woke me up! I didn't know what had happened. We are very close to many deep underground coal mines...I thought one of them had collapsed or something. A 4.9 on the scale...looks like it was felt in 11 states. Here is a great link:

Maplesville about 55 miles south of Bham.


Jonathan cool link, I stand corrected I also just found out it was a 4.9 before I read your post. Hope it wasnt a small one leading to a big one

4.9

Y'all got a taste of California! Everytime a tremor rolls through, I run downstairs to check on my tank.

Well being in a spot where this is not common, a 4.9 quake is a lil freaky, I mean Tornados I expect but not an earthquake. Speaking of which I have a video of the Tornado that came through last week( more funnel cloud though it was no longer touching the ground when it got to our house, still a sight to see ), still need to put it on vhs though.

Funny you should mention that, when I checked my tank it had knocked over a Monti. digitata. Time to get the ole gel out to fix it
