Yo ATLiens, Did Y'all Feel That?! There was just an earthquake in Atlanta!

It was in Decatur...the other Decatur...in Tennessee.

BREAKING: Early morning earthquake jolts Atlanta awake
The 4.4 magnitude event was felt across the metro area

Yes, Atlanta, that was an earthquake - likely one of the strongest we’ve experienced.

Residents from across the metro area jolted awake may have wondered if they were imagining things, but the magnitude 4.4 event was real. The U.S. Geological Survey reported that it emanated from east Tennessee, where it was the second-strongest on record, at about 4:15 a.m.

The highest magnitude earthquake previously recorded in Georgia since 1974 was a 4.3 magnitude event in Lincoln County. Whitfield County experienced a 4.2 magnitude temblor in 1984.

Georgia hadn’t broken 4.0 since then and hadn’t broken 3.0 since 2009 - until Wednesday morning. This map shows its reach:



While we might not think of Georgia as quake country, the ground does shake now and then. More than three dozen earthquakes of magnitude 2.5 or greater have occurred in Georgia since 1974, according to an Atlanta Journal-Constitution analysis of data from the U.S. Geological Survey.

Shit ain’t no joke.

U ever been in a earthquake ?

Or aftershock

Yo! I felt the on in DC while in the lower level of a BNB. It was the one that cracked the washington monument. Broke the owner's storm door to get out of the crib.

The crazy thing was how loud it was. I heard it before I felt it. Sounded like a jet or a train.
 
My wife woke me at 4:16 telling me the walls were moving. I was bone tired, and didnt even have the energy to crack a joke saying she wasnt the first woman to tell me that in the bedroom. I thought she was just being frantic as usual and I told her maybe a gust of wind hit the house (we've been having some strong winds recently with all the rain, and I thought maybe one of the Crimmuh Decorations got up rooted and hit the house) or some shit, just to shut her up.

Turns out she was right....God I hate it when that happens.....

LOL, I was awake and I knew exactly what it was because it happened to me the same day of the 2nd space shuttle crash.
 
Yep laid back down after taking a quick restroom break, bed just started shaking like a muhfucka, 1st thing popped in my mind was some kinda quake, glad I wasn't imagining things.
