I live on the top floor of a 5 story apt building 10.5 miles from the explosion and it woke me up. I thought someone had come home drunk and plowed into the wall in the parking garage. I was planning to walk the garage today looking for damage. It was a very solid jolt that shook the building (at least the part that I'm in). The missus slept through it.
Thank goodness it happened at ~4:30am when there aren't many folks out and about. I'm sure it would have been much worse if it had occurred during rush hour.
I assume we felt it because of the size and height of the building. I'm guessing folks in 1 and 2 story homes around us may not have noticed.
