Did you feel that shit [earthquake]
 

Anyone feel that shit right now in california i am 90 miles east of San Francisco, How it it over there?

damn that was a pretty good one 5.6

It was a 5.6 pretty large

I felt it out near Jackson CA.

In lodi and didn,t feel shit

Oh, hell yeah!!!

It really jolted my house - biggest earthquake here in 18 years.

Time for a drinkee... :drinkup

ADG

felt nothing here in woodland hills

wow...pretty decent shake...wildfires in the south and quakes to the north...california is at risk!

Same here. I'm about 15 miles from the epicenter.

Nice ride. Glad the power didn't go out. :thumbsup

Phones are all fucked though, both land and cell.

nice! it shook the ground pretty good here in Orinda.

Wow i thought it was the shots of Jägermeister. OK time to stop :upsidedow

Shit I hope a bigger one isnt on the way :(

You mustn't say things like that. :helpme

Riverside -- Didnt feel a thing ;/

Quakes of that size can be good because they take pressure off from the faultline.

My understanding though is that this quake was on the San Lorenzo fault, which is not the same threat that the Hayward Fault or San Andreas fault pose.

Now they are talking Calaveras fault. I think I'll wait until morning when they make up their minds. :)

It was nice knowing you Cali!

Everyone else, get ready to scoop up some Nevada beach front property!

heard nothing on CNN about that.

Local news is reporting a 5.6 and no damage.

5.6 is not really big yet folks.....

lol yeah i was sitting here watching comedy central and my chair started rolling back and forth while i was sitting in it. :1orglaugh

YEP sure did!!! :thumbsup:thumbsup

Continue your jokes, that was tiny for us and from what I understand there was like next to no damage. California is more than used to earthquakes, hell I think we get close to 400-500 a day. The state is covered in fault lines, so earthquakes really pose little threats to us, aside from San Fran and LA, and thats both due to liquifaction of the ground due to poor planing. Though our buildings are built for this crap.

Now you want to concern yourself, find the local faults in your region. NY for instance has a major fault line, however no small faults. So even a small ass 2 to 3.00 earthquake would destroy a vast majority of the city, the ocean side buildings would also go liquid, and hell keep in mind the sheer number of brick buildings that place has. BTW that fault is more than past due. Where here most of us would not even wake up for a 2 to 3 magnitude quake. So if your a betting man NY goes to an earthquake before CA does.

Then again few it seems really understand how the plates actually move, why CA is not headed west nor would it slide that direction. Unless of course you live on a damn sand covered hillside.

Oy, we have a seismologist in the hizzy.

i felt it way over here in Florida!

Didn't feel it at all I'm in the Nob Hill area of SF right now.

pretty calmed here in NoHo.........

Actually geology also works just as well, has less to do with trying to figure out finding ways to forecast them.

Yeah... but they keep getting bigger. A few months ago, there were 3 in L.A. in the same month or so... each got progressively bigger - and I dont think any were as big as a 5.6.

due to the weak dollar we didn't feel anything here in europe

Didn't feel shit here in Seattle.

feel nothing here in Amsterdam :)

wait till my mother in law moves into your street dude :1orglaugh

Looking at that list it looks like San Jose (Milipita area?) is getting a shitload of small quakes in the same place over the last few days
