I'm in southwest Connecticut. Less than 100 miles from Manhattan. We felt it pretty hard here. Tipped some stuff over in my shop. But if you were standing up, basically you didn't feel it at all. Especially if you were walking. Those of us that were sitting got the immediate what the hell was that. I thought it felt like a sudden strong wind as well. I didn't feel the second tremor at all. I believe I was driving at the time though.
