Yes, Virginia, it WAS an earthquake!
I can't believe an earthquake hit the area this morning! Yikes! We started getting calls about 5:45 from lots of people who felt their beds shaking...little kids were scared, dogs were barking...it was scary! Kerrigan and I didn't feel it in the radio station...but we are in the middle of the building. Might sound weird, but I was kind of bummed. I would have liked to see what it felt like. My friend Lori called in and said she was freaked out by her bed shaking so hard! So far, here's the skinny...it was 5.4 magnitude earthquake in Illinois (!) that was felt all the way over here, down to Kentucky and north to Fort Wayne, Indiana! That's a bad dude earthquake! I'm sure more details will come out as the day progresses, but keep your fingers crossed no one was hurt! Ever been in an earthquake or tornado? Any natural disaster? Tell me about it!

- EarthquakeHi Nancy&Steve,
In 1989-1990 we were stationed at Yokota AFB in Japan. One time when my husband was deployed, we had a 6.5 earthquake. We lived on the 8th floor, of a nine story apartment building. The whole building shook, and was rocking back and forth. Of course, you could hear all the dishes and windows rattling. It was a very scary experience, and not one I'd want to go through again!
