An Earthquake...in Oklahoma...really?!?

This morning shortly after 9am, I (and many others around the state) felt my first earthquake EVER! I know here in Oklahoma we have frequent earthquakes, but they are not usually strong enough to be felt, this one definitely was.  After I felt the tremors, I immediately assumed an earthquake, then called my mom in the next town over. I asked her if she just felt it and when she confirmed she did, I knew that it was indeed an earthquake.

The epicenter was determined to be east of Norman, OK. After first being downgraded from a 4.5 to 4.3, it has now been upgraded to a 5.1.

Crazy stuff!!
