Just felt it 2 minutes ago, everything moved for at least 10 seconds! scary!! I did not feel the last big one we had, but this one I sure did!
No numbers yet, we will know soon though.

It woke me up, thought someone was trying to shake me awake, then I realized I don't live with anyone. That was pretty wild, this one had more boom to it than the last one. Freaky things, they really need to go away.

I felt it too (on STX)!!! I wasn't entirely sure if it was an earthquake but it sure felt like one. Didn't last too long, though. I wonder when the big one is coming....last one on STX and STT was in 1867.

I always miss them! I was at the movies last night and felt nothing. 🙁

They sure come in bunches, don't they? Yesterday there were more than 50 reported earthquakes in the Virgin Islands Region (mag. 2.5 and greater).
