Earthquake
By Timothy R. Butler | Posted at 4:4:16
I was just awakened by an earthquake. 5.4, centered in West Salem, Ill, about 130 miles from here.
Update (10:42 CDT): They downgraded it to 5.2, but we just had a fairly large, estimated 4.5, aftershock. This is the first noticeable aftershock after a series of 1.5-2.5 magnitude shocks. What a morning… They are also forecasting severe storms today
I did not feel a thing here in Sullivan. There was some that did.
