Woah. That was pretty big. Short, though, thank goodness.

Anyone else feel that?

woo! That one was small enough to be fun. Pretty big jolt at first though.

Pretty light where I am.

I felt it and i'm in torrance.first thing i did was switch to a news station and then went to usgs website.says it was a 5.0 at a depth of 8.4 miles

Hmm didn't feel anything from La Jolla. Where'd it start?

 

[Nick 214]

Wow, the National Geological Survey is reporting it at a 5.0! I just got word here on the right coast... Hope everyone is a-ok!

However, this would have been a good time to test the integrity of my anti-vibration pebbles....

from what i have seen and heard so far it was pretty much centered in lennox

Yeah, this building kind of rotated a few times, then quivered, then stopped. I'm in Orange, so it was weaker here, apparently.

felt it. it was alright for a cali earthquake.

 

[roadtonowhere08]

I felt it. Strongest one since the one near Chino Hills last summer. Speaking of which, this is the most active So Cal has been for a while at least to me. This last year, I have felt four earthquakes, whereas the norm is usually around one.

A few miles from where I used to live.

A 5.0 here would be a disaster (would liquefy the fill that half the city is built on). Think of yourselves as lucky to think of a 5.0 the way you do!

One thing I miss about living in LA is how an earthquake is a communal experience. Gives everyone something in common. Is that a weird thought?

If you live in SouthernCal, 5 is nothing! I did not feel it although my wife did. May be was the excitement of watching Angels and Demons
