Holy Crap!

Hey, nature, we're getting ready for a hurricane and you give us an earthquake?! WFT? O_o

Did You Feel It?

If you felt this afternoon's earthquake, especially if you're in Virginia (evidently we have a 'poorly defined seismic zone') head over to the USGS website and fill out a Did You Feel It? form.

After a few hours thinking we'd broken the 1897 record, the USGS has downgraded the quake back to a 5.8. I'm perfectly happy with Mother Nature waiting another hundred or so years before she tries again. Yeesh.
