According to a local, the Atlantic Beach Pier collapsed about 20 mins ago
Just for due diligence here: a journalist in touch with the Mayor of Atlantic beach says the pier is still standing.- 4

Wouldn't call it "intense", but definitely made some noises.
definitely the strongest aftershock and most intense shaking in my life other than the main event.

I had an interesting experience. I was in downtown Bethesda at the Apple store and bumped into a table with the computers. The table started wobbling and kept on wobbling for like 5 seconds. I was thinking, "Hmmm, this is a really really poorly designed table" and looked to see why it was wobbling. Then it started shaking harder and I realized it wasn't just me, and then all the electronics were rumbling and moving on the table and all the tables were violently moving back and forth. I was thinking of what to do, I thought the building would collapse and I was screwed. Finally it came to an end, and I thought it was maybe some nearby construction gone wrong, as last years earthquake was super rare but still weaker than this one; that this was too powerful to be a DC quake. Then I looked across the street to bethesda lane and all the hanging lights were shaking and every patron in the store let out a collective WTF. I finally checked the twitterverse, and whatdaya know, it was an earthquake. Pretty intense.

The director of the USGS said it's possible the 5.8 was not the main event but the foreshock.
In the full interview, she said the odds of this were about 5 %
