We just had a magnitude 5.9 earthquake. I didn't realize it until my wife told me she felt the shaking. I was absorbed in a couple of books I was reading on my Kindle when the quake hit, so that's perhaps why I didn't notice it. I turned on the TV, and at the moment that's all the local stations are talking about.
Although those of you living on the West Coast will no doubt be saying, "5.9? That's a quake?", I don't believe we've anything like that in this area in well over a century or two.
