It's amazing you didn't feel it because according to DrudgeReport it was felt in NYC and all the way to Toronto. Did Steve feel it? Most of the people around that were inside felt it but those outside didn't feel anything. Weird.

Mom and Dad felt it in Wilmington NC,

I was around the Fayetteville, NC area and I did not feel it but had two co-workers that said they did.

Sister is in Cary NC and she did not feel it.

It seems like folks that were sitting down at the time felt it more than others in our area that were walking or moving.

I felt it and it swayed me around in my office chair. It was pretty strong and very unusual.

Steve didn't but his wife who was inside at their house said she felt it..... My GF bout 20 miles up didn't feel it in her house but her mother at work and her father at the mechanics said they felt it and saw the glass shaking

I was on the 5th floor of an office building waiting for the elevator to go down. The building started to shake and then started swaying and then the ground felt like the floor was rolling. You could actually see the walls moving back and forth. Hope everyone is safe.

Just head about that on the news. Very strange. Must have caught california fever.

I still vividly remember our socal 7.2 quake we had easter sunday of 2010. That was a biggie.

Yeah, i didn't feel it, but could have happened when we where driving. Cell phones wouldn't work because of all the calls being made.
Hope everyone is safe

I was at work at RTP (area between Raleigh/Durham) and felt it and others in north Raleigh felt it.

It lasted at least 4 seconds.
