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.

True. Though no one I've talked to knows anything about it.

To clarify my earlier post, I work in Orrville, which is about 20 minutes West of Canton, 40 minutes East of Mansfield, and 1 hour South of Cleveland.

Looks they revised the strength to a 5.0

Some Ohio reports on the map, all listed under "weak shaking, no damage"

No earthquake ... Golden Corral announced that their buffet was running low, and legions of fat housewives stampeded over for last call

My dad felt it in Greenville, PA. Not nearly as impressive as the quake in 1998 which was centered not far from Greenville.

I was sitting on my couch getting ready for work yesterday, and it felt like my couch was moving underneath me for about 30 seconds, I honestly thought that the heart attack or the stroke Ive been expecting for the past 5 years was just finally catching up to me, but then it stopped. I went along with my day, and didnt think about it again. I got home from work around midnight, and my wife was like "Did you hear about the earthquake this afternoon." So yea, I felt it in all honesty....and I didnt even know it. Pretty wicked stuff if the whole thing stemmed from Canada and I felt it in Newark.
