AN EARTHQUAKE HERE!

OMG, I've experienced my first ever EARTHQUAKE!!!

It was pretty freaky...I was sitting in front of my computer with the TV on to my right. The floor started rumbling under my feet and everything was shaking. I couldn't look at the computer screen because it made my eyes buggy. I immediately wondered if it was an earthquake so I got up and went downstairs and looked outside to see if anything had happened out there. Nothing...I didn't think anything more of it but then my husband came home and asked me if I had heard about it.

Here is a newslink:

Jenni isn't it the most weird feeling ever, we had an earthquake here about 3yrs ago in the middle of the night, I remember waking up with my bed shaking and feeling like someone was pulling me out of it and the house bricks were making this bizarre clanking sound, tbh I thought I was dreaming until my Dad was shouting was I okay. We put the news on but there was nothing and then about 30mins later they started reporting on an earthquake and it turned out the epicentre was not far from where we live.

I am glad you are safe and okay :)

Yes, it was really odd! Oh my, yours sounds like a BIG one. Ours was only 5.5 and in some places 4.9 from what I've read. But we're not used to it! My husband's sister lives in San Francisco. She's experienced the monster they had some years ago that caused one of their bridges to collapse and the World Series baseball playoffs had to be suspended that year! Fortunately nobody in her family was hurt!

Thanks. It only took a few seconds so if it had been a really big earthquake there wouldn't have been time to get out of the way. LOL.
