Default Earthquake

I caught the back end of this on the news. It said something about a earthquake in Summerville. Said it was a 4.something. That wasnt recently was it?

They say summerville felt it the most. I woke up to a loud Boom by the time i opened my eyes my house was shaking enough to knock stuff off the walls and counter.

They said it lasted about 10 seconds and it was a 3.6, i dont think there was any major damage. The actual "fault line" i believe is off Miles road which is about 2 minutes from me.

Correct sir, and it wasnt too weak by any means. Felt in North Chuck and out here in Jedburg. Kinda scary if you think about it too. We are due for a HUGE quake with whats thought to be catastrophic to anyone near.

I was in North chuck on the computer during the quake (posting in the SSS thread) and I didn't feel anything. TV was off and it was quiet as hell all morning.

I heard that the center of it was somewhere in Hanahan on Remount rd, but it was felt the most around goose creek/Summerville area? Strange how that works..even stranger that I didn't feel anything living off of Dorchester.

Didnt feel anything all the way up here. Nothing extraordinary ever happens in Greenville except for that tornado a few years back that threw a bathtub from a hotel on top of a blockbuster lmaoo

That is weird, I'm on the Summerville side of Dorchestor Rd. and it woke me out of bed. I was sleeping while Cynthia was getting ready for work when I felt the bed shaking, I sat up and saw her earings fall off the speaker on her dresser.

Didn't feel shit. Was at work around 6:45 am and didn't feel anything when it supposedly happened around 7:30. I work off Yeamans hall and Remount. But it happened on the other side of summerville. Not the 2 miles SE of GC like they claimed.
