It could not have lasted longer than 25 seconds.  Could feel mild shaking and noise which intensified and became more violent shaking and louder and louder, then the violent shaking stopped and a back and forth jolting movement was felt for 4 or 5 seconds this stopped and the violent shaking returned and the loud jet engine noise returned...I could feel the beams in the roof making creaking noise, I was upstairs and the posts on my 4 poster bed were swaying....it was scary and took me by surprise.  I thought the shaking was about to stop, but it got noticeably stronger and louder, all I could do was lay my body over my cat next to me to protect her and put hands over my head, she seemed to sleep through it all.
