3.3 centered in Watauga, felt in Dallas, FW and Austin.

Still feeling aftershocks as recently as 5 minutes ago in the Amon Carter area south of DFW airport.

Me personally...I wouldn't have been woken outta bed with something so little.   I'm from So Cal and if it's not a 5 pointer or more it's not on MY radar...lololol.

Watauga?????   I live 4 blocks from Watauga and never felt a thing !!!!  Hmmmmmm.....But then I was in San Diego 5 yrs ago when they had the biggest earthquake in forever and I saw the fishnets in a restaurant we were in swaying and thought it was the air conditioner till my son told me it didn't HAVE Air Conditioning !!!!   Seriously...never felt a thing !!!

 Where did you hear about this, Kris?    I wasn't aware N. Tex. was even on any kind of fault line ..

Did you think I was making it up?

I heard about it from MY HUSBAND.  He was THERE.
