It was at 00:56 actually. :P just saying
I read a topic about it on another forum, and it turns out the WHOLE of England felt it.
-
I felt it myself. It bout killed my lil cockatail bird :(
Wasn't very nice feeling.
I have checked local ISP information and customers on Virgin Media.
Lost their internet between 1 am to 6am if you live in the northampton region.
Bt users in the Carle and Mendlesham area lost their internet between 1am and was fixed by 5am.
Hope this information helped.

The epicenter was supposed to be in Lincolnshire so that's where you would have felt it the most.

honeslty a 5.6 is a bit minor. last year Florida had a 6.7 quake 100 miles off the coast ^^

But we shouldn't even be experiencing earthquakes... In Florida it's normal.
-
its not how strong it is but why they got it in the first place.
uk does not get many earthquakes im guessing? must have been a cool experience :redface:
-
i live in belfast and felt nadda.
however, we just did earthquakes in geography and he told us we dont get them. liar! lol

the closet fault line is over 3000 miles away.. it is extremelly unusual for one to happen witihng 100 miles of florida. closet fault line for EU is about 400 miles
-
I felt it in Kent... Weird...
-
I live near a hotspot in the US...there was once an earthquake in the 19th century that made like the biggest river in our country run backwards for a few days!
