So I woke up in what felt like was the middle of the night with my bed shaking. However, I crashed soon thereafter, woke up this morning and thought I was goin crazy for thinkin my bed was shakin last night. Then I heard on the news about the earthquake on the Illinois/Indiana border and I couldn't hardly believe I felt it all the way here at the Lake of the Ozarks (the middle of MO). So who else felt it?
 
i slept throught the one a 4 am
but wife felt the bed move at 10;15 or whatever when the 2nd one hit..
im just 40 SW of chicago.
I was at work didnt hear or feel anyhting..coulda been driving at the time..
i never get the good stuff :D
 
Haha, good point. It's funny, for the New Madrid bein so big in bad, it really doesn't act up much... now where's some wood for me to knock on? :scared:
 
yeah i felt it. I thought an earthquake wouldn't wake my brother up but it did. The dog was freaking out too.
 
I woke up and thought someone was shaking my bed. i was ready kick some a$$ until i realized I no one was in my house! Thought it was the wind and that was wrong and then BIG NEWS FLASh! THERE HWAS AN EARTHQUAKE AT 5:37AM. News covered the same stuff for 4 hours
 
I had no idea until late yesterday that anything had happened. Someone in Des Moines claimed they felt it but I sure didn't. They said the epicenter was in lower Illinois somewhere.

Yeah it was like 40 miles from me, and I'm gonna guess about 40 miles from Hale too...

Affirmative.

I felt it.......once at ~4:30am and again at 10:15am.
 
It was strong in Vincennes, not too much farther away than Hale. At first I thought the train yard was hooking up boxcars, but as it grew stronger we realized what it was.

5:34 AM and 11:15 AM EST.
