ORLANDO, Fla. — Did you feel it? Not the overnight rocket launch and booster landing—the earthquake!

Dozens of people reported feeling the earthquake just before 11 p.m. Wednesday — the launch and landing happened two hours later.

The U.S. Geological Survey says the 4.0 magnitude quake happened at about 10:48 p.m. about 100 miles off Cape Canaveral.

Either way, it's been a talker, having an earthquake hitting so close to a place known more for hurricanes.

For Wayne Struble, the Health First Director of Emergency Preparedness, he and his team are always on the ready.

"A key thing for anybody who deals with disasters or emergency preparedness, you really have to take that all hazards approach," Struble said.

It's all in their manuals. And believe it or not, earthquakes are included, including the quake that off the Space Coast Wednesday night.

"You never really think you're going to have an earthquake, until you have an earthquake," Struble said.

He has been through two earthquakes in his time.

"You realize the papers on your desk are moving, your computer monitor is moving," he said.

There were nearly 100 reports of people feeling this earthquake, scattered from Titusville down to Palm Bay.

Albert Bleakley, with the Florida Tech Civil Engineering and Construction Management, worked the aftermath of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake and has seen first-hand the destruction they can do. He said Florida buildings aren't designed to withstand them because they are so rare here.

"We are in the light blue area in the southeast United States where we don't have to design for earthquakes at all," he says.

But now that we've had one of our own, Struble says his team will be discussing them during their safety planning.

"We have to talk through it, what would we do," he said.

Records show this is the largest earthquake near Florida since a 4.4 magnitude struck in 1879.
