We're in the second story of our house here in Cabrera and had about a 10 second shake.. the whole house was shaking, all windows rattling... so much that I held on to my chair! I'd say it is probably the most we have felt in the past 5 years since living here, but could also be because we are on the 2nd floor where we haven't been for most of the other ones so it always seems a bit worse up here.

Ironically, while talking to my Mother in Maine about her chair moving in their earthquake last week my chair suddenly moved as well!
