Witness location : Păuleşti (Romania) (94 km SW from epicenter)

It felt like a short drop

Witness location : Bacau (Romania) (101 km N from epicenter)

At first there was a short vertical motion and a deep sound (it felt like something exploded on one of the floors below). After about 5 seconds the building started to shake vertically a few times, for 2-3 seconds.

Witness location : Galati (Romania) (110 km E from epicenter)

It was very short. I was in the kitchen and heard as if a gust of wind hit the dish suspended corps in the wall. After the earthquake even slightly aroused wind. Just woke up his wife who felt that the bed shook, but did not panic.

Witness location : Bucharest (Romania) (145 km S from epicenter)

Not the kind of quake to feel after a good session of friday-afternoon beer drinking :)) The floor was already moving around with me even before the quake. But leaving jokes aside, the situation in bad. I am studying about quakes since 2004 and a very big one is very close. It could happen any minute now.

Witness location : Bucharest (Romania) (145 km S from epicenter)

Au vibrat usor geamurile de la mobila

Witness location : Bucharest (Romania) (145 km S from epicenter)

It lasted between 3-10 seconds. More intense at the beginning, lowering it's intensity, but continuing for a long time (aprox 5-8 seconds). The motion was North-South. No vertical motion.

Witness location : Iași (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

short but "made its presence known!"

Witness location : Iasi (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

Miscarea a fost unica de scurta durata(2,3 secunde).As descriea miscarea ca o cadere in gol.
D.p.m.d.v a fost un seism atipic.

Witness location : Iasi (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

It lasted about 5-7 sec.  At the beginning it was a bigger shock in horizontal plane and then few shakings.

Witness location : Iași (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

durata ~ 4 sec

Witness location : Iași (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

A durat maxim 2 secunde cu 1 varf de aprox. jumatate de secunda insotit de un huruit usor.

Witness location : Iasi (Romania) (179 km NE from epicenter)

No damages, just a strong shake, lasted a few seconds, like a bump.

Witness location : Chisinau (Moldova) (224 km NE from epicenter)

I started thinking about how earthquake-safe is the building in which I live.

Witness location : Chisinau (Moldova) (224 km NE from epicenter)

2 вида толчков, сначала удар, а через небольшое время колебания

Witness location : Sofia (Bulgaria) (426 km SW from epicenter)

It was rather far away, but we felt it. When I got up I saw many windows with lit up lights in the neighborhood.
