Gulf of Mexico Earthquake

Gulf Quake around 11am Sept 10
Anyone in the Southeast feel it?
I felt it–what a weird feeling–but our house is on stilts and sometimes sways a teeny bit if it is windy outside, so I wasn’t all that alarmed. Then I find out I’d been in a 6.0 'quake. Yikes.

Wow. Missed it. I guess I was sleeping too soundly :wink: .

Here’s the USGS feely map.; reports all the way from western Louisiana to southern Florida.

Probably just a mantle plume working it’s way towards the surface. :wink:

Nah, it’s just God’s way of telling us to leave that big pool of oil they just found there alone and get on with developing alternative fueled vehicles. :wink:

Central Florida east coast here and we didn’t know about it until we read it.

When my Dad mentioned it, I was certain he got the “Florida” part wrong.

But the epicenter was offshore.

My Mom is down there, visting my Brother, Sister, Brother-in-law, & my Niece.

My LCD-Monitor started to shake but i didn’t feel any vibrations myself. First i thought it was anomaly caused by subwoofer but later i found thread about it in other forum.

I was actually on the beach at the time of the quake, but didn’t feel it at all. Only heard about it a few hours ago.

People as far away as Atlanta felt it and I live in an area close to the epicenter and I felt nothing. The earth didn’t move for me! Dangitall!

We felt it here; very slight, but certainly noticeable. If you checked the map link, I’m right in the middle of that group of reports from east central Alabama.

I was about to start a thread on the earthquake, because I felt it, but could not find anything about it on the news or not. Everyone I know thought I was starting to go crazy.

I live in Carrollton, Ga, and I felt it!

BTW: This is my first official post as a SDMB member. I guess I am finally paying for my share of the bandwidth.
