| The quake woke me up. I thought maybe the wind is really strong then I thought no it's not that. Then the neighbors dogs were crying afterwards. My husband slept through it. That's the first time I've felt an earthquake, everytime it happens around here I can never feel it. Glad everyone is okay.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I was up at that time because the dogs woke me up, maybe that's why they were barking. I didn't feel anything.

| I started a thread about the earthquake in the "off topic" area, I did not see this one.... We are in SE Indiana, and we felt it. No damage, no reports of injuries. My hubby is a 911 Dispatcher, and he said the phones were ringing nonstop... He had just pulled into the parking lot when it happened and said that his truck was shaking/rocking for about 10-15 seconds. I had been in bed, and woke up scared and the hair on my arms and back of my neck were standing up. I layed there and wondered what had woke me up, then my hubby called to make sure we were ok... My dogs did not even wake up... I told the kids about it when they woke up this morning. They thought I was teasing until they saw the news on tv... I wish I had felt it! I feel disappointed that I was sleeping when it happened. I heard there may be aftershocks, so maybe I will get to experience it later today... I hope everyone closer to the epicenter are ok and no damage to their homes! We do not have earthquake insurance around here. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | We felt 'em in St. Louis, too! It was freaky. My bed was shaking, which initially, I thought was the wind hitting the back wall (which bed is against). Then I realized it was the whole room shaking. I jumped out of bed and it was surreal to stand there watching my bed shake. My mom, at the front of the house, heard nothing. When I jumped out of bed, I apparently yelled "What the hell?!" Since she didn't feel or hear anything, I thought for a minute that maybe I was just nuts. |

I thought he was crazy until I heard about it LOL yep, I was sleeping hard. but I have to wonder if that is why the dogs were up so early this morning!! I'm glad everyone is ok

| My husband and I felt it, and we live in GA!!! it was a very faint shaking of the house. I was joking with him and told him I bet it's a tremor....only to realize there really was an earthquake. I can't believe we felt it. had we not already been awake, I doubt we would have woken up. I hope everyone's ok |

| We just had a pretty nice aftershock. Everything in the house was shaking and rattling. Daisy and Teddy both wanted to go outside, I think they are nervous being in a shaking house.
