2.9 earthquake here in southcentral PA
« on: June 05, 2010, 06:21:46 AM »
We has a 2.9 earthquake here in southcentral PA on Wednesday.  Happened about 10 miles from my office, only 1 mile deep.  Our building shook for about 3 seconds.  I was by myself and said out loud "What the h...?".   :o

No damage in the area.

Very strange for this part of the country, though.

Apparently minor faults criss cross the US.  Just west of me they were having small quakes like crazy about a month ago.  One evening I came home and found 2 items that had been on hanging shelves broken on the floor...not sure what happened.  Sort of scary/weird....one item was a cup/saucer from my Grandmother Kay...so sorry it was broken.
