7.2 Quake Rocks Southern California
« on: April 04, 2010, 07:37:02 pm »
We had another Quake in the 7.2 range and I am in the San Diego area about 100 miles from the Epicenter (Baja California) and so far there was no reported damage or injuries....So, California dodged another bullet.........what do you think?  Did you feel the Quake?

i'm a little bit further north of sand iego, in lake elsinore ca and we felt it here. it was pretty funny because i have lived in california for almost 20 years and this is the very first earhtquake i have actually felt. i was sitting in the recliner watching tv and my husband asked it that was an earthquake and i said no i just kicked over our daughter's toybox and he said not the noise, the ground is moving and it was. it was really shallow and there was no damage around us but it was very weird to feel the ground moving side to side like that.

There have been so many quakes lately...  I find it disturbing.

NO, I did not feel it, of course I live in Florida. That may be the reason I did'nt feel it.
California may have dodged a bullet but waite don't take a sigh of relief just yet the aftershocks are soon to arrive.

I didn't feel it here in L.A., but I was asleep at the time.

There's more than that and it should be a concern especially when all of the Earthquakes happens in the ring of fire zone. Hawaii is in the middle of it! I'm not in a flood zone, but I know people who live near the coastal lines. In the first four months of this year, over 60+ earthquakes have been reported. It's official. Earth is pissed at us.

so far there was no reported damage
The quake shattered glass at the Sports Arena and there was a house that 'collapsed.'

Also, I'm in the Lincoln Park hood. Where you at?

I agree with a previous post, I am beginning to find all of the earthquakes to be a bit unnerving. I used to live in Southern California, and I know quakes are quite normal out there, but when we take into account the earthquake that nearly destroyed Port Au Prince, and the series of earthquakes that struck Chili, one has to wonder if the Myans are right afterall. It's rather eerie.
