Sorry guys, I had some burritos for lunch and I couldn't hold it anymore...... feel so relieved now...

It was noticeable but not scary, nothing fell down or anything. This is the 2nd earthquake I've felt so far in Montreal.

Quote:

The epicentre of the quake was in Quebec, about 38 kilometres north of Cumberland, Ont., which is on the Ottawa River, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, and struck at 1:41 p.m. EDT at a depth of 18 kilometres.

It shook pretty hard here in Ottawa. We're only 60km from the epicenter.

It was kind of cool - I've never felt one before. Apparently we get small ones regularly, but you normally can't feel them.

Saw some clips on TV today. Pretty strange seeing it happen in Southern Ontario.

I felt it. I thought my house was haunted and some thing was shaking my desk back and forth.

Thought I was spending too much time in front of the computer.

Pretty confusing until I heard about the quake.

Scary shyte!

My son and his friend were in the basement and didn't feel a thing. Weird!

Guys - in Ottawa I literially thought my house was coming down. The pots were shaking in the pot rack, pictures fell off the wall. I live in Cumberland which was only about 20 miles from the EpiCenter.
