  • Keswick, VA - Rumbling...house shook a little...duration maybe 8 seconds or so...I thought it was earlier than 7:12 AM though...but I could be mistaken...
  • Louisa (1) - at 2:13 am today 2/19/2012 - woke up - like all of them, when they happen at night, something just tells you to wake up, then you hear the coming of the "under-thunder" and see/feel the house shake/rattle/roll
  • Louisa (2) - This was no different - very strong shaking - felt like it lasted 4-5 sec's ...then it rolls away... I live @ the bottom of Louisa County, close to I-64, approx 5-6 miles due East of Ferncliff (intersection of Rte 250 E/W & Rte's 208 & 659 ).
  • Louisa (3) - I am 10-12 miles south of the towns of Mineral
  • Louisa (4) - Does that mean we could have another quake stronger than 5.9 ??? I feel like a walking-talking Richter Scale.... and my home continues to suffer for it...

Most unreinforced domestic chimneys damaged, some below roof-line, many brought down. Environment : Cracks appear on steep slopes and in wet ground.

    MMI IX (Violent shaking) ?
    Structures Many low standard buildings destroyed. Ordinary workmanship buildings heavily damaged, some collapse. Reinforced masonry or concrete buildings damaged, some with partial collapse. Buildings and bridges designed and built to resist earthquakes damaged in some cases, some with flexible frames seriously damaged. Damage or permanent distortion to some buildings and bridges, designed and built to normal use standards. Houses not secured to foundations shifted off. Brick veneers fall and expose frames.
