    I did not feel anything here in southeast Virginia Beach, though from what I understand the residents at the north end of beach felt it and in neighboring cities and way up towards Richmond/DC area. The latest local reports no injuries to people or damages so far thankfully! I pray it stays that way.

    My mom and the rest of my family are in Richmond. My mom called me to tell me about it. She said they're all ok.

    I felt it here in Hershey PA. It was very alarming. Didn't know what it was at first - lasted about 5-7 seconds - I've never felt one here on the east coast & lived here my whole life.

    Looking at the news, it doesn't look like there were any injuries; I think buildings were evac'ed just for precautions...

    Felt it here in Williamsburg, still shaky from it myself. My younger kids were asleep and it woke them up. My 8yo daughter I found crouched on her floor shaking. Felt it for close to a minute. That was crazy.
