Wow, that was something. I have never felt an earthquake before. It lasted about 3 or 4 seconds. So cool!
Thankfully, no damage.

Lasted a good 6 to 8 seconds, felt like a Magnitude 5.0 here (gentle but continuous rocking, enough to knock a vase off a table, etc).

I sure felt it. At first, I thought it was my enormous cat pushing against my wheeled desk chair to get my attention. I looked around, and both the beasts were hiding under the couch.
