Darb1964 1,042 #5 Posted April 5 I felt it in Peru Massachusetts the Berkshires. Reports all over the area of house shaking and things falling off shelves. My house shook and cracked quite a bit but I don't think any damage was done. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 67,468 #6 Posted April 5 We didn't feel it here but my parents did in North Central Massachusetts. @Qball If it stretched this far we wouldn't have known because we were outside moving snow. Both of us running machines. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Handy Don 12,217 #8 Posted April 5 Pretty strong here for about 30+ seconds. Stuff rattled and a couple things fell off shelves. Initially it sounded like one of the heavy Army helicopters that regularly overfly us headed to/from West Point. As it got VERY loud and the house was shaking, I started thinking a helo was about to crash so I ran out to the front lawn. As both noise and shaking just quickly faded away I realized it had been an earthquake. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,850 #12 Posted April 5 One of my bucket list items, is to feel an earthquake. I’ve been in one, but riding in my Chevy loaded down with drywall. Might as well have been in a Caddy floating down the road! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Handy Don 12,217 #13 Posted April 5 Just had an aftershock. Much weaker than the first quake and shorter. Maybe 15 seconds. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reddart 207 #14 Posted April 5 Yep I felt it near Albany NY. I figured it was an earthquake since I had been quite accustomed to them living in California most of my life. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mickwhitt 4,621 #15 Posted April 5 Rare as hens teeth in the UK, but we had one in our area a good few years ago. Middle of the night and it shook the house like you wouldn't believe. Woke me up with the bed shaking and the bedroom door swinging open. I thought I was dreaming and just went back to sleep. Next morning the news was full of this earthquake. The forces involved are biblical and I can't imagine how it would feel to be in a decent magnitude one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might as well have been in a Caddy floating down the road! I checked off my list in 1984 on Easter Sunday. We had a large family gathering at the in-laws, the old farm house was packed with people when a 4.1 hit 6.9 miles away. The house shook and I immediately knew what it was and yelled for everyone to get outside thinking that old house might fall. The only damage was the items on the old cast iron cook stove crashed to the floor. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't really count this one as it could've been the clothes dryer was out of balance 6 hours ago, Handy Don said: Initially it sounded like one of the heavy Army helicopters that regularly overfly We get those once in a while. When a Chinook flies by there's lots of rattling going on. You can definitely feel it coming before you can see it 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
