Was it the earthquake in Plattsburg?? Becuase if it was that is kind of scary and I remeber when it happend becuase my friend goes to Plattsburg university and she was firghtened, but other then that I couldn't feel anything but what would I feel, I live on Long Island so I was I think a little too far away to feel anything. Sorry you missed it Sharon, I am sure your would have enjoyed to experience something like that!

Yes, i was fishing at Green Lake that morning. I was on the deck fishing, when i felt the earthquake. It felt like i was on top of the water and the movement of waves.

I was rudely awoken that morning by the shaking! At the time, I was living in the 2nd floor apartment of a duplex, and the whole place rocked back and forth pretty hard for a few seconds. Also, the quiet afterwards was the strangest thing: people were up and about, but it was dead silent. The even was kind of cool, but a little creepy at the same time.

Yea i felt it and i live in canada. To know that i felt it and that it came from that far away amazing. I live near the border also. I have felt many earthquakes in the passed 10 years around this area. Such as the Niagra falls earhtquake in 98 which was a 5.1. (very high for this reagion) and the one in toronto in 94 (2.9), The one from qubec in 2000 (3.2) This seams to be a pertern and now there is evidence of a fault line in lake ontario. This is pretty creepy to me. Could we experience major siesmic activity in the next 20 years or so?
