I was up in the hospital here in Staten Island visiting my daughter and my new grandaughter and when that quake hit, the entire hospital swayed back and forth. There was quite a panic with all the new mothers and their newborn babies, but the nurses were great and managed to calm everyone down. It was not a violent motion, but nonetheless that building really moved.

sitting on the beach in long beach, it felt like the kids were pulling on the back of my chair. when i realized the kids werent there i knew exactly what it was. just a small shake, lasted about 4 seconds. got home about 2 hours later and found out it was the ONLY news.

Felt it in Hagerstown. The people in my office, Volvo Powertrain, thought some bozo ran into the building with a test truck, everyone looking out the window, I knew right away from the descriptions my kids in Ca. gave me, feel the rumble then almost feels like a wave going under everything.

Parishht we Definately felt it in Hagerstown. I work just down the road a bit from the Volvo plant and we were shaking back and forth on the second floor of our building.
