We just had an earthquake, in Maryland.
A little shaking, and nothing fell down.
According to the USGS, the preliminary number was 5.9 (!) on the Richter Scale, centered at 37.875°N, 77.908°W, near Mineral, VA.
The epicenter was about 250km (150 miles) from me, so it felt like a semi driving by here.
I’m glad that I’ve given up caffein, or I might not have noticed.

Yup. Shut down a couple of reactors outstde of Charlotte. Just when a hurricane is due in the area. Be careful, my friend.
