Did we just have an earthquake?

[Halldan1]

For about 10 seconds while I was on the computer my whole house was shaking.

I'll turn on the TV to check.

 

[Merge]

Yep. Never felt one like that here.

 

[HallX2]

Felt in Chatham. Heard Boston to Philly

It’s the Pirates win in Indy.

 

[hbkmyr]

Yes. 4.8

 

[HallX2]

Selection committee unhappy. Wanted all the snubbed teams to lose so they looked good.

 

[SHUsez]

Couldn't figure out what it was at first

 

[SHUHoopsFan]

I read it was in Tewksbury. I guess we got the aftershock here in essex county.

 

[SHUSA]

Pirates must have landed back in Newark

 

[Section112]

Epicenter was Lebanon Twp.

 

[SOBO1]

No, what your heard/felt was just Mike McBride emptying the NIL dump truck for Kadary and Dre.

 

[Section112]

Maybe the Team just landed and the trophy is so big it shook things up.

 

[Halldan1]

No, what your heard/felt was just Mike McBride emptying the NIL dump truck for Kadary and Dre.

So the epicenter was in South Orange?

 

[HALL85]

Epicenter was Lebanon Twp.

Yes, now they’re saying Whitehouse Station. Which is basically the same area. For those of you that know the area round valley reservoir is man-made and has two huge dike walls at two ends. That would be catastrophic, if either one ever ruptured.

Felt like my house got hit by a Mack truck in Monmouth county. Earthquake and eclipse in same day....surreal.

Isn't the eclipse on Monday 4/8 not today 4/5?

 

[Piratz]

Seems like the highest ever recorded in NJ at 4.8 in modern times. Went on for a while, wow

It’s been a crazy weather week with the rain and winds now this.

Yup. Me too. Walked around to make sure all was OK.

 

[halltheway]

Near Rowan University (south-west Jersey)...some people felt it while others didn't.

 

[Halldan1]

From the school

Due to the earthquake, Newark Airport is currently on a ground stop and our plane has not left Indianapolis yet. Our welcome home celebration is likely delayed. I will provide more updates as I receive them.

I was in my office in Bridgewater giving a virtual presentation to the company. Apparently they evacuated the other few actually in the office for a time while I had no idea. Oh well...show must go on!
