Was at work looking over a co-workers shoulder at his screen then realized I was moving around, decided to move away from the window at that point.

I didn't notice it, but my boss did.

I'm southwest of Charlotte, N.C. Pretty good distance.

Sitting in my Jeep about 100 miles away. Felt a really odd swaying from a stationary Jeep. Thought my co-workers were screwing around.

Was in Fredericksburg V.A. at a friend of mines garage with my wifes jeep up on a lift and all of a sudden we heard a loud noise and then the whole building started swaying and everything in the shop was falling on the floor. All the cars started rocking back and forth and my wifes jeep almost fell off the lift. We all ran out side the shop and every car in the parking lot was shacking and you could see the ground moving up and down and his shop building swaying back and forth. It was freaky as hell.

I was at work and didn't feel a thing. A Guy in our back room was leaning on a cart filling out paperwork. He had just taken pain meds or muscle relaxers just a little before and thought he was getting loopy from it because the cart started moving around! Hahaha
