yeah my dad just told me it was felt in memphis ... there is a fault line that runs throught the area it just hasnt been an issue since the 1800s when a massive one shook the TN area

I had no idea about that until I watched the news before work this morning...

They were saying the quake was felt down here (Tennessee/Georgia border).


But, then again I slept through a tornado... so, I'm not suprised I didn't wake up.

My house was creaking and popping around that time this morning. Sounded like someone was breaking in. Then it stopped and I didnt think anything of it until I turned on the news.

Yea it's funny, everyone I talk to didn't feel it. Everyone just read about it on the news or heard about it.

[MadSpleen85]

I probably wouldnt have noticed it if I had not already been awake... I heard it more then felt it. Everyone else in the house slept through it.
