I'm in downtown Cleveland on the 5th floor of my building and it shook for almost an entire minute. Did anyone else experience the same thing?

It was in Ottawa. It was apparently felt by some here in Cincinnati. I couldn't feel it (that's what she said).

Storm on the lake may have some badass lightning, triggering some hellacoius thunder.

Yeah, there was a quake. One of my buddies on Facebook who lives on the West side of Cleveland said it hit. We didn't get it here in Solon.

What time are we talking? I was in the locker room at work around 1:00 PM, and we were talking about the ground shaking. It was weird.

Toronto CNN has confirmed quake activity in Central Canada at 1:46pm. Is the Terminal Tower in Clevelnad still standing?

There's a link on this page to tell the USGS if you felt it

I'm sure some of them are obviously bullshit (which USGS workers could weed out), but at the same time most idiots like that would never know to go to the USGS site for earthquake stuff. They would just to to their local newspaper or TV and make shit up to look cool in the local news.

I felt something here in the burbs of Youngstown. I was laying down and I felt the couch shake, but I thought maybe I was crazy. Then my mom just called and said they felt it downtown at the courthouse and I said well I'm not crazy...

When you're inside, you have the house and all of the stuff in it to shake, makes it easier to notice.

Back in 1998 or 1999 there was a light earthquake in PA that was felt in NE Ohio, I was at Jr. High football practice so god knows I didn't feel it, but they did at home.

WTOV9 in Steubenville Ohio is reporting that Wheeling and Moundsville WV felt quakes. Some of the top floors of the Mull Building in Wheeling have been evacuated after it was seen "shaking". The Jefferson Co. Courthouse in Ohio was also evacuated.
