Did You Feel the Earthquake?

According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), a 4.0 magnitude earthquake struck Maine at 7:12 p.m. Tuesday approximately three miles outside of Hollis Center.

There were no damage or casualties reported, however, according to the Connecticut Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, there were “numerous reports of this quake being felt in parts of Connecticut.”

We asked Woodbury-Middlebury Patch readers on Facebook if they felt the quake and here are some of the responses we received.
