A little shaking in Maine tonite
« on: October 16, 2012, 08:22:46 PM »
I felt it here in SE Mass, so I know those of you in NH and maybe VT and Eastern NY..... 4.6 magnitude earthquake at 7:12 PM, located about 20 miles west of Portland, ME., near Lake Arrowhead. NO reports of damage or personal injuries, yet. I'm about 90 miles south of there, and it SHOOK my house.
3 Davis set-ups...which one ya wanna talk about? And I got ALL my manuals....

Hope that's it and no aftershocks.  A 4.6 is a pretty good jolt too.

Felt it here just to the north of you in Concord MA.  The earthquake has been downgraded to magnitude 4 with an estimated depth of 5km.

Didn't really notice it here, as we were running around with the dogs at the time.

However, upon checking, the earthquake detector did detect and registered it. That was cool!

After the 5.6 earthquake in central Oklahoma last Nov. 5th, there are still aftershocks, but not as frequent.

I think someone should be able to predict when that will happen.
