Quake!!!

It was 1:51 pm eastern time on Tuesday when the shaking and loud noise started. I was sitting at the kitchen table and within a few seconds knew this was not like any noise or vibration I had ever felt before. Earthquake! I stood up and heard a few picture frames topple off the den shelves. Then I thought about the flat panel TV falling off the wall, which thankfully did not happen.

Emily was upstairs and I yelled up to her. She said "are we having an earthquake"?

Yep.

The whole thing lasted about 15-20 seconds.

An earthquake! Right here in Virginia!
