    It measured 5.4 on the scale and began 6 miles from Mount Carmel, Illinois and was felt all over the midwest states! That was the 2nd one that I've felt here in Chicago.

    Funny...when I lived in Los Angeles, I never felt 1.....but I've felt 2 here in Chicago. What are the odds of THAT!!LOL!!!

    I heard a lot of talk about the earthquake this morning on the radio.
    Apparently it was felt here in Metro Detroit.

    I didn't feel a thing. :!:

    Really rumbled here in Southern Illinois, just about 70 miles south of Mt. Carmel. Measured 5.2 on scale at 4:37 AM with 4.4 aftershock about 10:15 AM. Really strange feeling.
