Yes, like 4 total. They've been between 4.0 and 5.0 magnitude so nothing too serious.

I live in the Bay Area, the strongest I've actually felt was 5.6 like 10 years ago. There was one that was 6.0 a few years back but I slept through it.

Moderate tremors a few times in my life where I live, but nothing that caused real structural damage - just maybe a couple things falling off a shelf.

This exactly.

The last one I felt was something like, 7-8 years ago. I was at work and everything started shaking. My coworkers and I looked at each other and just went back to work.

Also if anyone recorded them in any way, even if you didn't expect it and you just filmed something and caught it on camera.

Sure, anything that could be felt and got your attention.

Felt that one that happened in North Carolina or whatever and was felt out to NYC. Lasted 30 or so seconds and I think it was 5 or 6 years ago. I remember tons of people posting as it happened on here.

There was one year's ago, but I slept through it. I didn't even know one happened. In my defense though, I live across the street from a stone quarry and the explosives they used shook my house much worse than the quake supposedly did. So I was accustomed to that kind of thing.

this one, two states north. woke me up, actually, so I didn't realize what it was until I read about it online a little later.

I also thought I felt one when vacationing at Yellowstone, but nobody else seemed to notice.

Had one a couple years back out of nowhere, although not a very strong one. Took us all a while to figure out what had just happened since we never get earthquakes out here.

I'm near Palm Springs. I've lived with them my whole life. I'm in my mid thirties so I remember most of the big ones. The Landers quake and that was 7.3 if I remember. The Big Bear quake was almost as big and on the same day a few hours later.
Hector Mine was a 7.1

Ah this one. I live near Hampton Roads so I didn't get hit too hard, just a little shaking in my house for a few seconds. I genuinely thought it was some aircraft flying low or something until my Mom called me. I literally could've slept through it. That's the only earthquake I've been in.

Hurricanes are another story though.

I wouldn't have realized there was one if the china cabinet wasn't ever so quietly making rattling noise.

So whatever magnitude that would be.

Yeah it's a mildly interesting story, but not that interesting.

This must have been like 5 years ago, but a small earthquake hit in Virginia, the effects were felt in the Pittsburgh, PA area.

At the time, I worked at a building in Pittsburgh's south side, and the T happened to travel directly underneath the building (we call our subway system "The T"). Every time a train would come by underneath us, the floor would shake slightly. We thought this was what the earthquake was, and didn't even think about it or pay it any mind. We legitimately had no idea that it was an earthquake.

I live in SoCal. There's probably one going on right now and I can't even feel it. I can't even remember the most recent quake of the most mag. I guess around a 6?

Yeah. There was one in Michigan a couple years ago. I was sleeping at college and my furniture started shaking. I think it originated on the west side of the state and wasn't very serious.
