There was a 5.1 earthquake about 2 miles SE of Sparta, NC just after 8:00 this morning. Only "Semi" off topic because it's 40 miles NE of Grandfather Mountain. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=30.88337,-88.26416=40.94671,-70.26855 I think that might have been what woke me

Gotta love the granite underpinning of the east coast. It was able to carry the shock waves from Mineral, VA, to Maine and down to S.Carolina. If it as California, even at that shallow a depth (6 KM) you wouldn't feel it 100 miles away because of the millions of years of Redwood tree needles
