This website lets me track earthquakes world wide stay up to date on all earthquakes
quakes.globalincidentmap.com...

I'm on the 12th floor of a downtown Cleveland office tower and felt the movement of this one. I haven't felt one since 1986 around here. The ceiling tiles rattled and I saw movement from my jacket hanging on a wall hook. This was a shallow quake which is why it has been felt in such a wide area.

Earthquake, Strongest in Decades, Hits Colorado

An earthquake with a 5.3 magnitude, struck Colorado late Monday in an area of the U.S. where quakes are relatively rare, the U.S. Geological Survey said on Tuesday.

The quake, the largest in the state in around 40 years, struck near midnight Monday night 180 miles south of Denver and 20 miles northwest of Raton, New Mexico, at a depth of 2.5 miles.

Interesting turn of events.

Best post in the thread.



My prayers go out to the victim of that horrible devastation.

Felt it here in NJ, Newark downtown area buildings emptied out

If my memory serves me correctly....Nostradamus....predicted earthquakes in New York etc. in one of his quatrains?

I hope and pray everyone is ok....

This is Gods way to show the white people that inhabit the region turn your wicked sinful ways. Or else expect a catastrophic event that will destroy everything.

You all have been warned. Stop sinning or else. Down with Greed. Down with Babylon . The whore of the World.

So no Black people live in that area or are you saying that God is only sending warnings to white people? I have to ask, after all it is not very often you see the race card pulled because of an Earthquake.

On topic... My Brother just posted on facebook that they felt it and his office building was evacuated. He works in Philadelphia.

My question though is this....

This is not a massive earthquake. It is large, but it is not massive as far as I understand massive earthquakes to be. So how could it be felt is so many places along the East Coast? I have seen reports from as far West as Ohio and Tennessee. As far North as Buffalo, NY and as far South as North Carolina. That is a HUGE area. Would it be normal to feel have a 5.9 in San Diego and feel it all the way up in Washington or Oregon? Or even San Francisco? That just does not make sense to me.

End Times!!!

I'll quote myself, since my post got shoved out the way fast with all these ridiculous conspiracy theories.

I have to say it's kind of humorous to see peoples reactions to an earthquake in a region where they don't normally occur.

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, experienced the North Ridge earthquake and all of the in-betweens. Seriously guys, it's not the end of the world - I laughed pretty damn hard when someone mentioned that it could be Elenin. There are faults everywhere in the U.S. and a decent sized earthquake is bound to happen at any given time. I remember when the massive Chile earthquake hit that I felt some tremors rock the house slightly, so yeah the distance of earthquakes can travel immensely and trigger movements in other fault lines. I mention this comment because I see that some people out in Ohio/New York are freaking out that they felt it being so far away.

It's all good in the hood people - I think the ATS community that are reporting they felt it are taking it more out of context than a non-ATS member would (You know what I mean lol).

I'll give a little tip on what my parents used to do to me when an earthquake struck. I was so terrified of earthquakes as a kid that they would shove a spoon full of sugar down my throat to calm me down.

That's blatantly racist against white people. Why bother even posting something like that? Ignorant D-bag.

God is not racist. Read the bible, he wish to turn people from the wicked ways they follow. This is a warning God is telling people to repent. ceasing sin and those people will be saved.

My guess they will not and those people will have a "major" earthquake. Where everyone is so sad that people have died; yet they forget the evil that most those people live.

I can feel it in Tehran, Iran!!!

Felt it here in Framingham, MA -- west of Boston.

Why has no one blamed the Tea Party yet?

I was writing in another thread....... the last time we had a quake where I am in Southeastern PA was 40 years ago. we don't really get quakes and the last one 40 years ago was small.

I have written here that because we aren't known for larger quakes they built many Nuclear Power Plants and two reactors are shut down in VA.

The Plants were built to withstand twice what the area is known to have in quakes and we just had one.....do you see where I am going with this ....also chem and bio such as off NY

As I see it things are progressing you should see the new areas these things are happening we need to keep our eyes in the next months on the Mid Atlantic Ridge

Also be safe the aftershocks might come

Really? I'm right here in Worcester and I didn't feel a thing, unless a passing truck covered it up or something.

From what I've researched ULF waves and other Infrasounds cannot be heard but sometimes they can be felt. i.e. queasiness, headaches, anxiety, and nervousness.

Thanks for the reply and the info .....You guys stay safe .
