Earthquake, Or Pipes?

Right now, in my building, the building just shook for 1 minute. Everyone went downstairs. I ran downstairs, and I saw about 50 people outside. The handy man said it was just them fixing the pipes.
I was so scared.

I heard there was an earthquake in washington D.C., Viginia, and some other place,  forgot. I think it was New York. 5.8 magnitude.

I was on the beach and we just got back into our condo in Wildwood NJ.

We felt a bit of the aftershock....

Aidan this is a very serious topic and no one else cares.

Re: Earthquake, Or Pipes?

I got hit in NYC. It was a pretty small earthquake, and considering that NYC is built near a fault line, this isn't the first time an earthquake hit NYC... however, this was one of the few that could be felt.

I am an intern counselor at a camp, and I noticed it...
Upstate NY even felt it...
