And I definitely felt shaking for several seconds. Not sure if 5.1, didn’t seem that major, but it was definitely noticeable.
What you feel in a particular place is dependent on a lot of factors, such as distance from the epicenter, type of fault and direction it runs, and the underlying type of rock.
though I'm somewhat amused that, after purchasing our home 6 months ago, we found out our (Florida) insurance broker stuffed 'earthquake insurance' in our policy.. when we found out we changed the policy and fired her.... and now we get an Earthquake.
Likely felt more in PA, WVa., Va and the closer you get to Baltimore.

Thought it was a quake but I wasn't sure. Lasted about a few seconds.
Doh.
