[Travelandtourism] Earthquake along the eastern seaboard

[Jaquiss, Robert]

Hello:

     We felt the earthquake here in Baltimore at the NFB Jernigan Institute. The building was evacuated and we all went across the street to the park. After an inspection, we all went back to work. So far, no damage.

Regards,

Robert

I was sitting here about 10 minutes ago and the whole room made me feel 
woozy.

I am on Long Island.

An earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 5.9 struck in northern 
Virginia, the U.S. Geological Survey said Tuesday.


The quake was felt in Washington, D.C., and as far away as North Carolina 
and New York, witnesses said. While all U.S. Capitol buildings were 
evacuated, there were no reports of injuries or damage.
