    Yes, I felt it. All my hanging plants were swinging because it lasted so long.

    Can't find it reported anywhere on earthquake trackers, though.

    It was strong enough that I went outside my house.

    I'm afraid of the heavy tile roof on my head!

    Must be something going on. I can hear all the radios on in the neighbors houses.

    I'd imagine we felt it a lot worse being on the top floor of a tall building.

    Maybe at ground level it was a non event, but my wife was rather scared.

    I'm in Chiang Mai too, but I didn't feel anything. I'm in San Phranet, am I on the wrong side of town?

    Sorry but I had to chuckle at that.
    I can see your wife crouched in a corner shaking with fear whilst you grab your laptop

    Being on the top of a tall building is worse given any situation for we scared of heights people.

    6.6-magnitude quake hits Myanmar, felt in Bangkok
    November 11, 2012

    An earthquake with a magnitude of 6.6 on the Richter scale hit Myanmar 8.12 am Sunday, the United States Geological Survey reported on its website.

    The USGS reported that the quake's epicenter was 56 kilometres northeast of Shwebo, Myanmar. It had a depth of some 10 kiilometres.

    Several Twitter users in Bangkok, who live on highrise buildings, posted messages that they felt their buildings swaying at the time of quake.
