I felt it, but I was in the car and it only seemed to last about 3 seconds. I thought it was a massive gust of wind hitting the car or something.

slight bit of shaking for around 5-10 seconds and i swear there was a buzzing after it...

wait... there was an earthquake?

Anyone else feel the earthquakes around 1 this morning?

It hit Liverpool, but it was an aftershock from one that hit Bury apparently.

epicentre was in lincoln 5.2 richter scale

for those confused, we have many ancient fault lines not directly associated with techtonic activity, but are from our ancient turbulent past. stress can build up in these over time, as a result of techtonic activity, and can release energy in a snap.

so there's your earth science lesson for today

URGENT - MANCHESTER EARTHQUAKE APPEAL
AT 00.54 ON WED 27th Feb 2008 A MAJOR EARTHQUAKE HIT MEASURING 8.8 ON
THE RICHTER SCALE EPICENTERED ON MANCHESTER.

Victims can be seen wandering aimlessly muttering:"eey are mate, sorted, gotta fookin light form meh spliff? Nice one are kid!",
"Ah need some jellies" "Ah need a fag and a Special Brew". The Earthquake decimated the area, causing approximately £3.50 worth of damage, with the exception of the Salford area, where it caused £500,000 of improvements.
Untold disruption and distress was caused. Many were woken well before their giro arrived. Several priceless collections of mementos from the Balearics and Spanish Costas were damaged. Three areas of historic and scientifically significant litter were disturbed.

The cone fell off the head of the statue of the Duke of Wellington outside the Art Gallery. Thousands are confused and
bewildered, trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting has happened in Manchester.
One resident, Shanice O'Dwyer, a 17 year old mother-of-three said: "It was such a shock, little Chelsea came running into my bedroom crying. My youngest two, Tyler-Morgan and Kaneisha-Jade slept through it. I was still shaking when I was watching Trisha the next morning."

Apparently though, looting did carry on as normal. The British Red Cross have so far managed to ship 4000 crates of White Lightning to the area to help the stricken masses. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings including benefit books and jewellery from Elizabeth Duke at Argos.

Slept through the whole thing.  No probs.  Found out on radio in car on drive to work that there'd been one.  I wouldn't have known.

We had one in here too, 5.2 on richter scale last week.

Maybe earthquakes are sweeping the globe right now?
