The magnitude 5.8 earthquake that struck Tuesday, Aug. 23, in central Virginia was felt far and wide — from New York City to the Carolinas and west to Ohio.

The rare East Coast temblor prompted building evacuations, disrupted sporting events, and even shut down two nuclear reactors close to the epicenter.

These photos show the reaction to the quake in Washington, D.C.

Gov. Tech should have provided/shown pics of damage at Mineral, VA where the quake epicenter is--Those pics would be VERY relevant to this story. Wash, DC, on the other hand, had very little seen damage.
