My son works in Falls Church and said he thought one of his friends was shaking his chair. Turned around and no one was there. His girlfriend is a teacher and was in a meeting in her school. Said the ceiling tiles started falling and the metal tracks that they sit in got bent. The school has cracks in several places. No children today, supposed to have classes tomorrow. Probably not. The school is about 9 miles from the epicenter. When my son got home in Fredericksburg, he said that some of the pictures had fallen off the walls and some were crooked. One cabinet had the doors standing open, but no other damage that he could tell.
By the way, I just downloaded the earthquake app for my Droid and it said there was a 4.2 quake in VA at 804 PM a few miles from the first one.
