We felt it this morning in Winfield, MO. My husband woke up and asked me if I could hear "the noise"... it was our mini blinds flowing back and forth and tinking against the window frame. I almost said, "I bet it's an earthquake" but I was too tired and we fell back to sleep.

Cutter....yes we do...the experts say because they are hard rock mines it is not the same issue as the soft rock coal mine areas. Also the St Francios mountain range somewhat insulates our area from the shock.

Scary and weird at the same time.....

Now we have something else to distract us from the gas price JUMP!

I know I heard them say it once but it was not the New Madrid fault, it was another one in Indiana, does anyone know the name of it?

My husband says the only earthquake in his lifetime was in 1968....i am 9 yrs younger and remember them alot in the late 50s and 60s...when i lived on The Hill...which is where he grew up also....He didnt feel this one either this morning!!!

When it hit our house, it felt and sounded like tennis balls were pelting the house. My daughter said it sounded like that to her, too.

Anyone else "hear" that kind of sound?

St. Charles

I live in Wood River and woke to the house shaking,also our dog was acting crazy.
we just bought our house in november,and now we have much damage to the brick and structure.

"We were shaken but not stirred!" :)

This is the first time I eevr felt anything like this and i couldnt remember what to do :P so i just laid in bed being shook. i heard rumbling so i figured it was a earthquake felt like the longest minute ever. it knocked a few of my diecast model cars off the shelves onto the ground. must say tho now that it is over it was pretty cool to get to experence it and not sleep though it!
