Falls Church last night. Woke me up. Books fell off shelves.

Assuming it was more of the continuing aftershocks from Louisa.
Oddly, nothing on the USGS site (although there's a 1.7 the day before).

That's because it wasn't an earthquake. The USGS didn't register anything at all in the state of VA. The last one was on Thursday 4/26. There is some speculation about a large low flying plane, helicopter, or unidentified object in the area that might have been the source. Not sure yet.
