We've had occasional small earthquakes around here, but the only one I remember
experiencing was the August 2011 earthquake in Northern Virginia.
I remember it as a low rumble that rattled my windows. IIRC it lasted about 2
minutes, building up slowly & then tapering off. About half way through I had
the sudden realization that I was hearing & feeling an earthquake.
The Wikipedia article about it mentions all the states on the Atlantic Coast
*except* North Carolina.
It even mentions the earthquake effects on mid-western states Ohio, Illinois,
Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota ...Canadian provinces Ontario,
Quebec and the Maritime provinces along with Kentucky & Alabama, but nary a
mention of North Carolina.

There was a quake of about the same magnitude on the Alaskan Peninsula
while we were there. I was sleeping, and woke up at the time of the quake,
even though I did not feel any of its effects.
We sit atop something called the Peapack Fault. Every 5-10 years we
experience a very mild (2.0 - 3.3) earthquake, but never any damage. Not
like the one in CA.

PS: How close were you to this morning's New Jersey earthquake? Did it
wake you up?
