  1. Here in Bradford we felt it, it shook a picture off the wall. We actually thought maybe there was a drilling explosion somewhere at first. Funny part was that our dog freaked out about a minute before the house shook and the picture fell. Scared the bejesus out of us!

  2. I sure felt it but I thought it was the washer going crazy like always. Then I realized I wasn’t washing anything – in Ceres

  3. I have been outside most of the day with the kids and we didn’t notice anything. We’re in Coudersport.

  4. just now stopping in Buffalo, we was at a rest stop on I86 and the misses says she felt it while inside getting us coffee. I didnt feel it but then I was in the truck too
