It would have to be much further south to do any good.

Sounded like an explosion at the Belvoir proving ground. I’m about a half mile from there.

Must be the consequences of Gorebull Whining.

Richter 1.8 makes the news?

[arthurus]

These “earthquakes” happen everywhere in the country, even in Florida. It is just fashionable to get concerned about them now because of the recent unusual larger tremors in the midwest. 1.8 is probably a somewhat weaker disturbance than a not very close sonic boom.

[PUGACHEV]

Yup, I was at the epicenter. It was very, very, odd: there was a low-frequency and distant “boom” accompanied by an steady, powerfull, vibration felt through the building and the air that lasted for about three seconds. It did not sound like an explosion or thunder because there was no sharp “crack”; it sounded rather like someone had dropped and an enormous object on the ground far away. Afterward, it was unnaturally quite outside.

Super-hard trivia question: what seventies hit pop song used the word “Annandale” and made a reference to earthquakes in the same line?

It could be an omen.

[Right Wing Assault]

Of course it might have been a horse farting.

[Bookwoman]

I thought Hitlery was in Indiana today, but here she is stomping around and causing tremors in Virginia...

[RDTF]

I was on the 10th floor of a building but the fluorescent light fixture kept vibrating

Tupelo just got a 3.1

They probably noticed.
