Didn't so much feel it as hear it. Was in a warehouse looking at some flooring and what sounded like the wind buffeting the siding and roof went on for a few seconds. A guy came running out of another bay over to us and asked what what had just happened and did we feel that? I said eh, it was just the wind lol.

Working on 3rd floor of our office building in reading, building shook for a good 10-12 sec.
We are right next to the airport where lots of military choppers land. I thought there was a chinook hovering overhead or something big, lol. Windows and walls were shaking pretty strong, pretty wild stuff.

I'm in Bowie, MD, and yeah it shook me up pretty good. Had my house swaying back and forth for a good 10-15 seconds or so which was pretty wicked, can't say I've ever felt anything like that before.

I was standing right next to a lady at work and she said "Did you feel that?" Couldn't feel it at all, I was disappointed.

I'm in Greenwich CT, and I didn't feel anything. Glad I move into my dorm in NYC next week so I didn't have to experience it.
