Default SO CAL Quake... 5.4-5.8...

Hope none of y'all were affected by this last one today...

When the wife and I lost the property around Santa Cruz from the quake, it was years before we got a good settlement.

That looks pretty close to several people I know. Hey, Janis, did you feel the earth move?

Yup... sure did. No damage around us even though it was a good roller and shaker. When the aftershock hit, it was almost like having seconds.

No wonder I hardly felt it. One little jolt and that was it.

Of course, I'm south of I-8.

In Santa Ana, about 25 miles from the quake, up on the tenth floor of an office tower. Pretty cool actually. One secretary went hysterical but that was the most of the damage.

5.4?

The way the cable news folks were covering it you'd think it were a 6.4.

5.4 isn't much more than a happy dance.

5.8 and above, THEN YOU'RE TALKIN'.

I sure felt it. I was sitting in a chair outside of my daughter's dance studio for fall registration. I was first in line, sitting right up against a wall of plate glass windows. Once I realized what was happening, I got up and ran!

Everything is ok though. Apparently my mom and my daughter had a bit of a scare sitting under a huge concrete patio cover at GoldenWest college. The thing made a very loud noise and my mom had to grab my daughter and run. My daughter apparently got very scared. My dad's laser printer also fell to the ground. My husband and son are in Northern California right now and didn't feel a thing.
