Re: Earthquake in the dc area!
Several of my friends and colleagues were sweeping and scanning chimneys at the White House when the quaking started. Here they are on video!

Re: Earthquake in the dc area!
A lot of people don't associate the East Coast with earthquakes, however there are quite a large number of active faults in the region.
On the average, there is a Magnitude 5 earthquake every hour somewhere on the globe.

Re: Earthquake in the dc area!
I was sitting in my van in the middle of my driveway when it hit... I live in Delaware. I thought my husband was clowning around jumping up and down on my van bumper. Then, when I realized he wasn't, I thought "Oh great, something is wrong with my van making it huckle-buck." Then it stopped, and I went about my business wondering what was wrong with my van. It was 10 minutes later when my daughter called to see if everything was ok from the earthquake. I'm like, "HUH? Earthquake?" She was 15 minutes away and they got shook up pretty good at her college. Third floor. They evacuated. I dunno. I guess being in the van cushioned it for me, cuz I thought it was nothing. LOL.
