Just how strong was Wednesday’s earthquake anyhow?

The quake that struck about 11 miles south southwest of Mifflintown in Juniata County measured 3.4 on the Richter scale, with weak-to-light shaking being reported throughout central Pa. and as far south as Chambersburg and the Maryland border. Earthquakes that fall between 3.0 to 3.9 on the scale are considered minor. We can feel the earthquake, and objects inside are going to shake around, but there very rarely is damage.

Here is the full scale:

Magnitude Description Effect 1.0-1.9 Micro Recorded by seismographs but not felt by people. 2.0-2.9 Minor Felt slightly by some. No building damage. 3.0-3.9 Minor Often felt by people, but rarely causes any damage. You can see objects shaking. 4.0-4.9 Light Noticeable shaking of objects, and people can usually feel it. Only minimal damage caused. 5.0-5.9 Moderate Can damage poorly constructed buildings. Everyone can feel this. 6.0-6.9 Strong Can damage a number of well-constructed buildings, but earthquake-resistant buildings will only have slight or moderate damage. It can be felt up to several hundred miles from the epicenter. 7.0-7.9 Major Damages most buildings, most in poor shape will at least partially collapse. 8.0-8.9 Great Major damage to buildings with lots of destruction. Will cause moderate-to-heavy damage to earthquake-resistant buildings. Can be felt throughout extremely large regions. 9.0 and greater Great Near or total destruction of all buildings. Permanent change to ground topography. Can be felt in very distant locations.

We have had several earthquakes larger than this shake the state before:

September 25, 1998: A 4.5 earthquake hit West Fallowfield Township in Crawford County. January 16, 1994: Two earthquakes shook the state, one measuring 4.2 on the Richter scale and the other measuring 4.6. The epicenters were in Spring Township for the 4.2 earthquake and Lower Heidelberg Township for the 4.6 earthquake, both in Berks County.

April 23, 1984: A 4.2 earthquake struck south of Lancaster, in Conestoga.

March 11, 1980: A 3.7 earthquake hit the greater Philadelphia area, six days after a 3.5 quake shook the area.

May 12, 1964: A 4.5 earthquake hit Lebanon.

Your symptoms will depend on which substance was used. This could be alcohol or another drug.

Symptoms can include:

drowsiness or light-headedness

difficulty speaking

slurring your words

difficulty concentrating

loss of balance

finding it hard to move

visual problems, particularly blurred vision

memory loss or 'blackouts' - when you cannot remember large sections of your evening

feeling confused or disorientated, particularly after waking up

paranoia - a feeling of fear or distrust of others

hallucinations - seeing, hearing or touching things that aren't there

nausea (feeling sick) and vomiting

unconsciousness

temporary loss of body sensation - having an 'out of body' experience

All date rape drugs are particularly dangerous when they are mixed with alcohol. This is because they combine to have a very powerful anaesthetic effect. This is a temporary loss of sensation or awareness. It can cause unconsciousness. In more extreme cases, it can cause coma or even death.

How long the effect lasts

How long the drugs' effects last will depend on how much has been taken and how much alcohol, if any, you have drunk. The symptoms could last between 3 to 7 hours, but if you pass out it will be hard to know the full effect. You may still feel some of the symptoms of a date rape drug after a night's sleep; particularly confusion, amnesia or nausea.
