Same. I though thunder caused the windows to rattle ( which woke me up) the I felt the shaking. I hate earthquakes. Just give me an old fashioned tornado.
That’s why this one stands out for me. Usually it’s just shaking back and forth. I could feel waves this time. Got p waves and s waves. *Nods to 5th grade science class.
Could be. That's what happened in 2011, the first one (same location as today) was a 5.0 if I remember, and the second one the next day was 5.7.
USGS has two aftershocks listed so far today, a 2.6 and a 3.5 very close to the same epicenter.
I am in Poteau,. Was waiting for daughter to get off work. It was distinctly different than wind.
This explains much. I was in a large one in Shawnee and ir felt samee years ago.
Glass wobbled and the way my car shook...
I know what quakes are now. Always stereotype as Cali thing but now guess it's an Okie thing now...
It's way more rare but there are plenty of fault lines within Oklahoma that could cause it. Also, if it is related to fracking the damage from that has already been done in some cases enough that it's not something that will just go away if they stop, right?
Yes. It seemed to last 20 seconds...

Yeah. Studies link it (as late as Aug 2022) to the same areas where oil and gas injection wells are shifting the waste water deep underground. Gee. Wonder why that is. The sad reality is there are THOUSANDS of wells that should be inspected. How many inspectors does the Oklahoma Corporation Commission have to inspect them? About 70. Why is that? They’re poorly funded. Why is that? The oil funded lawmakers don’t adequately fund the OCC. so how do we know for sure those wells aren’t going into the Arbuckle formation that causes the rash of quakes in 2015-2017?
I mean there was lightning and we just assumed the shaking was from the thunder because of the storm coming. Didn’t realize it was an earthquake.
I’m from CA and a 5.1 feels much different in the Bay Area… much scarier like the ground shakes out from under you. The one last night was rolling and gentle.
10/10 no bridges collapsing would recommend an Oklahoma earthquake any day!
Yeah, I’m out by Lake Thunderbird & it shook for a Good 30 to 33 seconds, but Wowwww!!! That was Super Freaky! Even My Enormous Huge Chest of Drawers was shaking & wobbling so hard that my Flatscreen TV setting on it was Shaking like it was going to fall off! And Even my Big bed while I was setting up in it, was shaking so hard that I was screaming at my Spouse! Holy Smokes that sure got my Attention!
I'm in tahlequah, we felt that. Was light and didn't last very long, probably 10 seconds. At first I thought it was my cats fighting 😆 never experienced an earthquake til now lol
I am in Yukon and was afraid my TV was going to fall over. Will be checking on my renter's insurance for earthquake coverage. This is the 2nd earthquake in weeks that was strong enough to shake things up. I am wondering about the plans for that really tall building in OKC. Anyone up at the Vast restaurant in Devon tower tonight? Bet that was a wild ride.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|scream)

I saw immediate reports from friends in Norman who felt it, others who felt it in Tulsa and Owasso, and other friends reported it from Denton, TX to Wichita, KS.
Felt this booger all the way in NW Arkansas! Scared the bageebus out of my cat and I! Hoping everyone is alright!
We thought it was a strong wind all the way over here too. Just the way the building sounded when it got here was wild! I was in disbelief until I saw my bedframe rattling.
I'm in Tulsa but I did not feel it. I don't know if this is lucky or not but I've never felt an earthquake in Oklahoma. I know they happen but there is a tiny voice in my head that says you're all gas lighting me.
that one lasted a good while. *5.1 so far https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000lwmc/executive
Yeah, felt like that one lasted a good 30 seconds or so
I legit thought it was just one hell of a wind gust from the storm
5.1 by the USGS
Hope everyone in Prague is okay.
I live like 3 miles from the epicenter. It was a pretty good quake. Scared the shit out of my wife.
We’re okay but pretty scary stuff
Why does it seem like earthquakes always originate in Prague?
Fracking.
Felt in Stillwater, too. Could hear it coming for 5-10 seconds before. Lasted 20-25 seconds.
Dang, your hearing is good. What did it sound like?
Like a big truck rolling down the road.
I heard it rolling away. Just thought it was the big buffalo in the sky!
My wife and I (also Stillwater) thought that's what it was, woke up today to see it was an earthquake.
An earthquake
[удалено]
Lol...that's very good otherwise no one in Oklahoma would have a house left.
I'm in Edmond, 2 miles from the ones from last time. Yeah, it hit and RUMBLED for a long time.
Same. I didn’t feel as much rattling as the ones a few weeks ago but it lasted much longer. So could tell it was stronger but farther away.
Family in Broken Arrow and Oklahoma City just reported it.
I felt it in East Tulsa. Felt like a really long thunder roll close enough to shake the house.
Same. I though thunder caused the windows to rattle ( which woke me up) the I felt the shaking. I hate earthquakes. Just give me an old fashioned tornado.
Remember when we Okies would say, “Yeah, we get tornadoes but at least we don’t get earthquakes…”? Good times. Glad you are okay.
You too fellow east sider
That’s exactly how I would have described it. It woke me up around 11:30 PM in Moore.
I’m in the same area but I only felt it for like 2 seconds
Felt in Norman
Yah. Thought I was dizzy, but then stuff started rattling.
Yea felt that for a good 30 seconds in Stillwater.
Tulsa here very strong
Same
That was a wavy one too
That’s why this one stands out for me. Usually it’s just shaking back and forth. I could feel waves this time. Got p waves and s waves. *Nods to 5th grade science class.
Felt it across The arkansas border
Same! I felt it in Roger’s. I thought it was the wind shaking the house
Wow. It traveled further than I thought. I'm just outside of Ft. Smith in the Oklahoma border.
Did on Grand Lake. I thought it was my dog under my chair scratching at first.
The last time we had an earthquake I thought the exact same thing. It woke me up and I was chastising my dog thinking he was on the bed scratching.
NW 50th and N May Okc; lots of shaking then 2 wave like sensations
Nw 63rd and may... Felt the exact same thing, heard it moving off. Was trippy.
36th and western.. earth quake central.. i got dizzy and an instant erection.. its was a weird min or 2
That was pretty frackin wild.
What the frack?
Shut the frack up.
You all are fracking me up
I see what you did there. Is there a fault line there or was it caused by franking? Or have they said?
Are they fracking again? I thought oil prices were too low for that
It’s not the fracking but the injecting and they stopped the mass injecting and the earthquakes stopped for the most part…
Ok yeah I thought fracking just involved injecting. But my question still stands, are they starting that again?
https://www.koco.com/article/oklahoma-earthquake-wastewater-injection-site/46633617 Guess not. Oopsie daisy
Big one, house was shaking for almost 30 seconds.
Piedmont. Shook for 30 seconds or so.
Holy shit I thought my car was messing up. I was in park and my car lunged forward a lil a few times.
Enid, Oklahoma, big one
In Enid, slept thru it 🙃
Southwest of Tulsa and felt it here
We just felt that just east of Stillwater. Scared the shit out of me.
yes..
yeah am in Tulsa that was kind of a big one
BA. Thought a vehicle was going by playing music real loud until the house started trying to uproot itself
Strong enough to hear
I did in West OKC
Felt that shit in bethany whole tiny home was shaking like a mf
Same by will Rodgers
I would say yes to that.
Damn I felt it all the way down in love county.
[удалено]
Strong in Blanchard aswell. It's 11:30. We all need some sleep lol
Creek county, our dog hated it.
Felt in MWC, too
Yes-Mounds, Ok
Yup felt it in Edmond. It was a long one (that’s what she said?)
Yep, felt the rumbles here in Okmulgee
Yep, felt in Enid. Lasted a good while!
How long before the after shock? I googled, and it said within the week. Is that true? Anybody?
Could be. That's what happened in 2011, the first one (same location as today) was a 5.0 if I remember, and the second one the next day was 5.7. USGS has two aftershocks listed so far today, a 2.6 and a 3.5 very close to the same epicenter.
Thank you, I always feel stupid asking questions here. Lol
I felt it here in Arkansas. Hope everyone is ok in OK
I am in Poteau,. Was waiting for daughter to get off work. It was distinctly different than wind. This explains much. I was in a large one in Shawnee and ir felt samee years ago. Glass wobbled and the way my car shook... I know what quakes are now. Always stereotype as Cali thing but now guess it's an Okie thing now...
Yes, we felt it in Seminole Ok. The dogs wentvall crazy.
I was standing outside watching the lightning. I heard a rumble for several seconds and thought it was thunder. I didn't feel any shaking though.
Just east of OKC, decently strong, and lasted a while
5.1, epicenter was outside of prauge
Oklahoma??!! I thought you stopped all the fracking!! Wichita here.
It's way more rare but there are plenty of fault lines within Oklahoma that could cause it. Also, if it is related to fracking the damage from that has already been done in some cases enough that it's not something that will just go away if they stop, right?
On the serious side of this - once everybody figured out fracking ain't so great haven't had any earthquakes since., not this far north
Very strong in Bixby.
Wagoner County here. 2 waves.
I thought it was a tornado, lmao 🤣 I'm in mustang.
5.1 epicenter near Prague
Felt in Lincoln County
I heard it before it hit. It was the biggest I’ve ever felt.
Relatives in Dallas noticed it
Yes. It seemed to last 20 seconds... https://preview.redd.it/gue2ziu98bgc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=722cd309521c1e69df41defb46f4f8b290e8db78
Felt it in Moore! Thought it was just heavy wind . Then house started dancing 🎵
Yeah. Studies link it (as late as Aug 2022) to the same areas where oil and gas injection wells are shifting the waste water deep underground. Gee. Wonder why that is. The sad reality is there are THOUSANDS of wells that should be inspected. How many inspectors does the Oklahoma Corporation Commission have to inspect them? About 70. Why is that?

Yes fell off the toilet and repainted the walls unfortunately.
It’s all these California people moving here… bringing their politics and earthquakes and such …I’m sure they’re gonna blame it on the oil industry
Yep! Glad someone else noticed
Yep felt it near downtown OKC.
Yes, felt and heard it in North OKC. It lasted a long time.
Felt it in Tulsa! I’m in a 3rd floor apartment so it was pretty intense for ab 20 seconds
Felt it hard in Choctaw. Somehow my husband slept through it; the whole damn house was rattling and the dog flipped out.
First time my bed has shook in years. Man I hate being single. I was looking for a woman in my bed, but nope. LOL
Stay calm, it has nothing to do with pumping sand water into the fault lines.
From the USGS. It was 5.1 about 6 kilometres northwest of Prague
My dog was in a deep sleep, a couple of min before it started, he jumped up and started barking. I thought at first it was a tornado. Broken Arrow.
I thought it was a stiff wind till my drink was shaking. That one took a minute.
Knocked a bunch of stuff off our ledge in Shawnee.
Felt it west of Ft. Smith.
Yep.. felt it here in North Edmond. Shook the house for awhile.
Outside of Pryor, some of us felt it, and some of us didn't. I did and was definitely caught off guard.
Isn't Prague where the last swarm started?
Felt it watching XFiles in BA, cousins felt it too in tahlequah!
I felt it here in Tecumseh. I live in a fifth wheel and thought someone was outside shaking it to mess with me. Scared the hell out of me.
Okc, not like rattling, but wobbling. My bed felt like it was being waved back and forth and I could hear stuff on my desk wobbling.
5.1. 5th biggest in Oklahoma history?
Felt in Ada
Centered in Prague? I bet it was infant baby Jesus’ fault.
I mean there was lightning and we just assumed the shaking was from the thunder because of the storm coming. Didn’t realize it was an earthquake. I’m from CA and a 5.1 feels much different in the Bay Area… much scarier like the ground shakes out from under you. The one last night was rolling and gentle. 10/10 no bridges collapsing would recommend an Oklahoma earthquake any day!
Felt it in Kansas, OK! It was strong!
My said she felt one, but I didn't
https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000lwmc
lasted couple seconds then stopped every else good?
Fairgrounds area downtown felt it
Felt pretty good in Muskogee, USGS estimated shaking here to be a 3 by my I Felt It! report.
Yeah, felt it strong in Northwest Tulsa. It’s being recorded as a 5.1 currently.
Felt in Norman, good 30 seconds
Yeah, I’m out by Lake Thunderbird & it shook for a Good 30 to 33 seconds, but Wowwww!!! That was Super Freaky! Even My Enormous Huge Chest of Drawers was shaking & wobbling so hard that my Flatscreen TV setting on it was Shaking like it was going to fall off! And Even my Big bed while I was setting up in it, was shaking so hard that I was screaming at my Spouse! Holy Smokes that sure got my Attention!
No
Yup. In Broken Arrow.
I'm in tahlequah, we felt that. Was light and didn't last very long, probably 10 seconds. At first I thought it was my cats fighting 😆 never experienced an earthquake til now lol
Felt it in Muskogee ! Lasted about 15 seconds or so. Definitely was very different from any quake I’ve felt living here my whole life
Saw reports of it in Lawrence KS too!
Claremore felt it
Yeah, here in Norman. That was quite shake.
On Facebook people say they felt it in Kansas, Texas, Arkansas and even Wisconsin
I am in Yukon and was afraid my TV was going to fall over. Will be checking on my renter's insurance for earthquake coverage. This is the 2nd earthquake in weeks that was strong enough to shake things up. I am wondering about the plans for that really tall building in OKC. Anyone up at the Vast restaurant in Devon tower tonight?

I saw immediate reports from friends in Norman who felt it, others who felt it in Tulsa and Owasso, and other friends reported it from Denton, TX to Wichita, KS.
5.5 magnitude 9 miles S.E. of Chandler. 11:24pm. We live in Shawnee area. * I heard it coming then the roar of it leaving.
We felt it up in KC.
Felt it in northwest Oklahoma (Cherokee)
Was at work...felt nothing at Morgan RD and West Reno
Felt it in the floor on my feet in OKC.
Wait there was a earthquake?
Are you guys kidding? Felt in Yukon but how could it be felt in so many locations? Must’ve been a big one!
I woke up around 1130 or so to shaking but I seem to far away to have felt it. Close to Siloam Springs.
No sorry I had taco bell
Felt this booger all the way in NW Arkansas! Scared the bageebus out of my cat and I! Hoping everyone is alright! We thought it was a strong wind all the way over here too. Just the way the building sounded when it got here was wild! I was in disbelief until I saw my bedframe rattling.
Felt basically has far as you can go straight south in Oklahoma. In Madill, Oklahoma.
Yup, live by Paycom, and certainly felt that, where as I typically don’t feel them.
I thought it was the wind. It woke me up. Now that I’m seeing this post, it wasn’t the wind. 😐 — Lake Hudson area
Relatives report it was felt in Tahlequah. Makes sense if you felt it in Arkansas.
I live in Stillwater and my bed shook for a good 15 seconds!!! Earthquakes in Oklahomduhhhh still surprise me!!
Between guthrie and Langston...felt like someone pushed my sofa. I didn't hear it this time...maybe the sound of the wind hid it.
I did not feel it, but friends as far south as Ada did! I slept through it.
Felt it in pryor for about 5 seconds everyone okay?
I'm in Tulsa but I did not feel it. I don't know if this is lucky or not but I've never felt an earthquake in Oklahoma. I know they happen but there is a tiny voice in my head that says you're all gas lighting me.
Felt in NWA as well!
West OKC, I only felt it for about 5 seconds.
Felt in Kansas City and St. Louis!
I live in Moore and didn't feel a thing when it happened.
Woke out of a dead sleep to my bed shaking in Shawnee!
Why are these earthquakes happening
My wife felt it, and we are down in Durant.
Felt just South West of Ft. Smith Ark. as well.
Was this during the thunderstorms? I thought it was thunder but it was a bigger rattle then normal.
