Not far from our nuclear plant which is scary. The power company has shut down the reactors as a precaution.

I was in Family Dollar in the back corner of the store when the quake hit. The store shook and things on the shelves were shaking violently. I waited a few seconds to see if it would stop and when it didn't I ran to the front of the store until it stopped.

Yea, we have not had one like it in over 100 years. It was quite an experience.
