Anyone near Southern California feel the earthquake?

Had a 5.4 at 4AM this morning

My brother is in California at the moment and he felt it, his first earth quake (he lives in Singapore, it is quiet there).

I slept through that one, albeit I am a few hundred miles away.

Yep. Just south of Fresno. A little shaking, nothing to be concerned about though.

Got a kick out of hearing news outlets remind everyone to make sure they stock up on flashlights.

One day.

She’ll give a GOOD wriggle. rub a coupla plates together seriously.
And we’ll all go walkabout for a coupla million yrs while she
cools down and starts again hey. without feral humans on here .
A much better place I reckon.

6.4 is good for getting your attention. :slight_smile:

Except that people will forget about it after 6 months or so. Most people just can’t wrap their minds around the fact that at some point there will be a devastating quake in northern/southern Calif, and that effective government response will be measured in months rather than days.

at steamer lane in Santa Cruz, CA a 30 foot long by 12” wide crack appeared in the cliff by the main parking lot, yesterday. today it was about 25% wider.

I did not feel the quake

my friend and I are taking opposing sides, he says the cliff section will drop into the water, Im betting it wont, its “solid” rock underneath right?:wink:

Above.

That “solid”rock you talking about. Is just a tiny splinter on a thin cooling crust on a small fireball spinning in space. Miniscule in the way of things.

OH. None of it is SOLID Rock. Just a thin skin of several cooling plates. that are permanently on the move. Usually together.
But look out Charlie if any ever separate. WE ALL gone.

The way we treating it. It’s only a matter of time.

Have a great day hey….

I tried finding pics or a story online and have not yet been successful. Have you seen either Jon?

I’ve been thru many and could tell it was a good one….frim 200 miles away in Oxnard.
First thing I thought about was how many batteries do I have charged.SMH

It woke my 2 kids and wife, put the news on and was surprised at how far the epicenter was….

Earthquake just now (8:23pm) in Las Vegas. Was watching the NBA summer league game, Knicks vs Pelicans. Scoreboard and speakers hanging from the ceiling swaying back and forth at Thomas & Mack arena.

I think I felt this one.

It was a rolling earthquake, but we're so far away from the epicenter, we're fine.

Swarming….I hope no one is hurt.

I guess I’m too drugged up to notice. I got a hip replacement a couple days ago. I was standing and talking on the phone to someone in town who felt it, but all I got was hearing the wind chimes make noise when there was no wind . . .

I felt both earthquakes. Normally I sleep though them or they are usually milder. I am definitely NOT prepared for the big one.

Not here, nope.

I also have not found pics online, will have to snap one tomorrow

I hope you heal fast after the hip work
and that your pain levels stay suppressed

I had mentioned just 2 days ago that the lack of wind made it feel like earthquake weather… next day a big crack in the cliff… stay tuned for the photo op
