I live in Lexington and I felt it this morning. It was weird and only lasted about 15-20 seconds. I have overheard this morning that small portions of brick facade fell off some buildings in downtown.

MY dad said he felt it this morning here in Pikeville. Said about 3 shakes of the bed. Nothing major, even thought it was me running downstairs.
My professor told me this morning that it woke him up, otherwise I would have had no clue.
It woke me up from my bed and walls shaking.
