Earthquake
Did anyone feel a very faint rocking to and fro today around 1:30PM or so?
I though I was having a vertigo moment even though I never had one in my life.
It felt as if my chair was rocking back and forth slightly at my computer. I shrugged it off as a menopause moment. I happened to turn on NY1 news and the breaking news was an earthquake in Canada felt as far down as Queens and Central Park.
I called some folks I knew and they said they didn't feel a thing.
I am on the top floor of a 14 story building in Clinton Hill.
Anyway, just wanted to see if anyone else felt it.

Subject: Yep
Yep. I was on the top floor also in CH, and felt the building sway. At first I thought it was me, but just found it on the news. (Whew! Not crazy!) -
I work in Harlem and we lost power very briefly. We're on the ground floor, so felt no shaking, but losing power was wild! My first earthquake.
