Yes, as a mater of fact Michigan has experienced several earth quakes, the most recent would have been June of 2010. The quake started in Canada and was felt through the eastern region of Michigan. The western region of Michigan experienced a 4.8 back in 1947. The chances of a devastating quake though in the state of Michigan is low unless it hits the nuclear power plant located in Ohio.
According to the US Geological Survey, each state has some. Florida and North Dakota have fewer than the other states but Florida has more hurricanes. The last earthquake in Florida was in 1952 and the last earthquake in North Dakota was 1968.
They have never experienced an earthquake but they only experienced floods.
No. An earthquake would never last more than an hour. Most last less than a minute. The 1989 earthquake lasted 15 seconds.
The 2010 Chilean earthquake lasted 90 seconds.
Chile's last earthquake was the Araucania earthquake that happened at 17:20 on 01-02-2011. It was 7.1 magnitude.

Florida has experienced numerous earthquakes throughout its history, but they are generally quite mild, resulting in little damage or injuries. The link below gives you a history of recorded Florida earthquakes.
Florida is not located near a tectonic plate boundary, which is where most earthquakes occur. While Florida can experience small, mostly unfelt earthquakes called "microearthquakes," a large, damaging earthquake is highly unlikely due to its location in the middle of the North American Plate.
Yes, Florida does experience earthquakes, but they are rare and usually minor in magnitude. The last significant earthquake to occur in Florida was in 2006, with a magnitude of 6.0 near the Gulf of Mexico.
The magnitude 9.0 Japan earthquake in 2011 was not felt in Florida but the waves from the tsunami did reach the coast of Hawaii.You can visit the USGS Did-you-feel-it web site to check if people reported an earthquake in your area.
I heard while back that the state of Florida is the least likely to have an earthquake. But Hurricanes...that's another story.
Florida does not have any major fault lines that are younger than 6 million years old. Although there are no fault lines in Florida, there is still a chance of an earthquake being felt in Florida.
i think it was when the earthquake happened last year
Earthquake: It was felt in NW Florida as well.
