I woke up a 5:00am and it felt like the bed was shaking, by the time my head cleared it had stopped and then I fell back to sleep. Then during the drive to work I heard on the radio that there had been a 4.5 earthquake centered in Alabama. Well my first earthquake and I mostly slept through it.
The epicenter of the tremor was approximately 37 miles southwest of Chattanooga, Tennessee, along the Georgia-Alabama border, according to the United States Geological Survey Web site. It struck just before 5 a.m. EDT.
