Virginia Earthquake Takes Away Cell Services

Some cell netwroks stopped working!! The thing is: the cell networks weren’t really damaged by the shaking. The shaking didn’t bring down any towers or wires. But because the quake was felt so widely, from North Carolina to New England, it prompted millions of people to make cellphone calls at the same time. This stopped cell service for about half an hour. Thats so crazy! The earthquake was a 5.8 and thats pretty big espeacially since states felt it all down the easter coast. I bet that was a scary feeling. It would've been cool to feel it though, I think. Idk though, it'd be interesting.
