When I think of earthquakes, I typically associate them with places like California. However, Michigan has indeed experienced significant seismic activity throughout its history.
There is one location in Michigan's Lower Peninsula that is more susceptible than anywhere else in the state for an earthquake and it's in Branch County near Coldwater.
It's been a couple of years since Michigan experienced an earthquake, but a mining explosion on Drummond Island came close. The explosion registered 2.7 on the Richter scale.
Where were you around 12:25p.m. Saturday? Did you feel a weird rumbling/ quaking?
I've heard some interesting tales of what people thought it was-- a car accident, odd thunder on an otherwise gorgeous and sunny day, houseguests wrestling in another room (this comes from my little brother who's 24, for which that would be a totally normal thing).
Turns out, it was an actual earthquake here in West
