X2 I work in an industrial park and several of the buildings here had people pouring out of them.. I have two sisters that live in California, so I've felt earthquakes before while visiting them, so I knew what it was, but several of the ladies here were downright terrified. Truthfully, I'm 67 years old and that's the first earthquake I've ever felt in New Jersey. I know that there are several fault lines in NJ...the most noticable one being the Ramapo fault line not too far from where I live...but I've never felt a quake in NJ before. Hope everyone's ok. I heard that there also was a 5.8 quake in Colorado this morning...?

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.
