Default Illinois earthquake

Got woke up this morning in Central Illinois about 4:40am with the furniture shaking in the house. Reports are a earthquake at the Walbash Fault measured 5.2-5.4 in the West Salem area. Reports of it being felt in 7 states.

We felt it here in Southeast Mo.,about 90 miles south of St. Louis....I woke up because the large wall mirrors we have started to shake and rattle,my youngest Daughter ran into our bed room saying that her bed started to shake!I was told there was a small tremor/after-shock later on at around 10:20 AM.
