      Did you contact the police or check your local newspaper? They are the ones who would know.

         It was a light earthquake (2.5 MbLg) centered in McCaysville. Here is the U.S.G.S. info on it.

        It was definitely loud, the sound was what caught my attention. it sounded like Fannin Regional Hospital collapsed in on itself.  I barely noticed any tremors.
