The U.S. Geological Survey has reported a 4.4 magnitude earthquake near Dover, DE that shook eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey and portions of New York and Connecticut.
The last earthquake felt in the Conshohocken area was during the summer of 2011 when a 5.8 magnitude earthquake occurred in Virginia (our beach chair moved in the sand at the shore).
Lots of local people are commenting on social media about feeling the quake. Here are a few:
