There was a magnitude 4.0 earthquake offshore, near Eastlake, Ohio yesterday. No reports of damage or injury.
Ohio is not allowed to have earthquakes; that was not included in their charter from 1840-whatever. Send it back.
Pretty cool, I felt it where I am 26 miles from the epicenter.
I knew exactly what it was when it happened. I heard a boom and then my chair swayed in a very particular way. I remember the same feeling from 2011 when there was an earthquake in Virginia and we felt it all the way up here. I was sitting in the exact same place.
Not too many people I talked to down here felt it. I think I was just in the right exact place - sitting on a wheeled chair on a wooden floor above a basement.
^ For the good of mankind, try sitting in a different place, you quake-causer, you.
Didn’t feel a thing on the west side. Saw some videos that looked like cheap attempts to simulate an earthquake by shaking the camera.

God is sending a message about Republicans.
Hey, if it works the other way…
Lemme guess, fracking wells in the area of the epicenter?
The first earthquake I ever felt, long before I moved to California, was in Urbana, Illinois.
Did Lake Erie slosh?
The quake was in Lake Erie, not sure it was related to fracking. Here’s a map of the epicenter and here’s a fracking map of the area . Looks like all the fracking is well inland, in southeast Ohio.
I don’t think I knew this but there seems to have been a 2.7 earthquake very near the same place in 2013.
**burpo **I’m actually sort of bummed at myself for not having changed my routine for over 8 years now 
I grew up in Eastlake. We never had any earthquakes when I was a kid.
Did Cleveland rock?
Bravo!
And I was also wondering if Lake Erie sloshed.
Whatever the damage, Stay Strong!
4.0?
Meh.
I spent most my life in SCal. 4.0 is a a fun ride. Especially on the 8th floor.
When we lived in KY (Mr VOW was in the US Army), I felt a tremor. I looked at him and said, “Hey, no mistaking what THAT was!” And we learned about the New Madrid Fault then.
California considers earthquakes to be entertainment.
As a contrast, tornados scare me shitless.

No one was hurt, there’s no need to swear 
I too was wondering about Lake Erie sloshing, considering the epicenter was in the lake. I haven’t seen any mention of it, though. There are salt mines up in that area, under the lake, but they didn’t report any problems due to the quake.
Would that meander through the Smoky Mountains region, by any chance?
I am former Mo resident, and read that 1811 New Madrid quake (there were actually 3 quakes between 1811-1812) was felt as far away as Boston and Gulf states. As 20year resident of Cali, I laugh when Cleveland complains/worries about quakes–the previous “quake”? that occurred while I was working downtown on 22nd floor and my coffee cup didn’t even shake!
no only Mo, Ky. Ark; New Madrid quake was largest east of Rockies
what makes my jar drop is Eastlake residents making t-shirts saying " I survived earthquake"!! I survived 1989 Loma Prieta quake, which caused more damage, but no t-shirts!
