So, how many of you felt that earthquake earlier today? I have to say, it was really weird, especially because it was my first experience with one (that I can recall). According to reports, Highway 307 was damaged and a church in Quebec collapsed; earthquake was a magnitude of ~5.0 as well for those that don't know.

We felt it here, but just barely.

My grandpa phoned me about this. He said it happened in Ottawa, Montreal, Quebec, and New York all around the same time. Anyone wanna confirm?

You guys aren't supposed to get earthquakes.

I felt it at work -- but I thought nothing of it.
A construction crew was blasting foundation for a store right next to ours for the last 2 weeks... it was only when someone told me about the Earthquake that I realized that they stopped blasting on Friday.
It was just like, "Wow, that was a good blast".

Apparently this was pretty widespread, including reports within 20 miles of me in SW PA
