Earthquake in Montana

Just felt a somewhat mild earthquake at approx. 10:15 Monday evening in Kalispell, Montana. Anyone else feel it?

I'm in Tampa and it's 1:04 A and I haven't felt a thing. But it's very unlikely that I would.

We felt a mild shake here in Great Falls,Montana about 10:15, I've been on the computer ever since, to see if it's happened before. It made the walls and dressers shake and rattle, I wonder if anything will be in the paper.

Hi there, are SF station just said your Montana earthquake was 5.6. That is quite a jolt so imagine you did feel it! Reports are there is no reports at this time of any major damage or injuries. Don't panic if you feel some aftershocks, that is normally but they always seem to be less of a jolt. Take care.

Well how odd, because we just had one here at about 10:15 p.m. tonight near the Big Island, a 4.4.

That would be, "We felt it in Great Falls, too."

I left out a word or two in my first post, and posted a second reply to correct the first which I guess magically replaced my first post. So now my previous message doesn't make much sense. Perhaps it was the earthquake?

Tandoori_Girl, darlin', according to the USGS we've had over 50 earthquakes in the last 24 hours in CA and NV-- just little tiny ones:
