The most powerful earthquake to hit North Carolina in more than 100 years shook the state this morning. The 5.1 magnitude quake rattled homes, businesses and residents at around 8 a.m. across the state.

   Earthquakes are interesting phenomena. I used to experience them in Greece (magnitude 7). I felt quite safe because of the way houses are built but it was surreal watching the chairs or other furniture were were on wobbling 😊
   At least we knew where these started but in Britain, I’ve no idea where our minor shocks come from!
