Pretty much my experience also. I've been through several earthquakes, but this one was more like an explosion. A small shake followed by a significant shock wave.I'm 22 miles from the epicenter. Damn near spilled my coffee in my lap. Thought the furnace exploded down in the basement, but it continued running with no smoke. Put my shoes and looked around - then I thought there was a natural gas explosion in the neighborhood. It was a loud and quick violent shake of my house......

I live north of Indy and we felt it pretty good here. Wasn't sure what it was, I thought an explosion or maybe a truck wreck.
Regardless I had to search the house which got the "Why do you have all those guns if you aren't even going to get one when searching the house" line from the wife...
I live 3.1 miles from the epicenter. It was very strong and a new hill was formed from it...
BTW there was another quake in April of 2008 here in Kokomo.
DYFI Historical Events
Maybe unrelated but..........
And then the unexplained explosion in 2009 and
the sheriffs saying something crashed and there was a debris field
south of town, then the next day saying nothing was there.
