Last night Haysville was shaken by a 5.6 Magnitude earthquake around 10:53pm. The earthquake epicenter was in Oklahoma just East of OKC but it was felt as far away as here in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas, Texas and Tennessee.
I believe this may be the strongest earthquake to ever shake Haysville.
A few comments about the quake from our Facebook page…
Shook the glasses in our cabinets.
Im used to our 2 story house being shaken around a lot by the wind (like we had today) but what made it so surreal was that we were in the basement and it was moving. Took a minute to realize what was actually happening.
Us too!!! Crazy
We are visiting family in Ark City…shook the cabinets and the lights were swinging. Crazy!
I actually heard it coming… sounded like distant thunder, then it shook pretty good, followed by a swaying motion for a few seconds. rattled the dishes in the kitchen
