Apparently there was a Earthquake 250 miles south of Chicago this morning, and I felt it here in my house.

It was a shaky little thing about 3 or 4 seconds, but I felt it. (even thgough they say the earthquake lasted 25 to 30 seconds)

Anyone else around these parts feel it.

Apparently it was a 5.4 (tied the previous Illinois record)

i find it wierd to be in the region. We havent had a major quake since 93. Apparently SoCal is due for a big one some time soon.
