    I felt this earthquake in the Happy Valley Subdivision,which is about 5 miles to Whitefish, We live in a 3 story house, I was on the second floor and there was an unfamiliar sound and our large, tall home really shook. It was really weird, never have felt one before. My pet birds were excited and shook up, but the rest of the family slept right through it!

    Felt the whole house shaking….took me by surprise! Lasted about 4 or 5 seconds with kind of a “rumbling” sound. A totally freaky experience!!

    We heard a loud rumbling that seemed to travel from NE to SW as the house shook. No damage discovered.
