Big Earthquake in Cali

[Chongo94]

Not near any of the larger cities but since we have such a large Californian contingent and network these days, just throwing it out for any to check on family and friends if they know or have any in the area.

Struck at or near Ridgecrest I believe. Felt in LA and Vegas.

Right at China Lake NAS weapons testing area.

LisaLT, please check in safe.

Brother and his family landed in LA yesterday. Bet they are thrilled. Haven’t heard from him so I’m assuming all is ok.

EDIT: they didn’t feel a thing.

Weird deal. As mentioned above, my brother and Fam are in LA. LA is two hours from the epicenter, and they haven’t felt a thing.

Thomas & Mack Center is three and half hours from epicenter and it rattled the arena.

Conclusion, earthquakes are weird.

Is it from the fracking?

I wish earthquakes would suspend ALL NBA games...especially summer league.

Mrs. DJ and I lived in the Bay Area in 77 and 78, and we had an earthquake while I was on the air one morning.

I didn't even know it occurred until our anchor reported it as a news story at the top of the hour.

Admittedly, it wasn't a 7.1, but it's epicenter was only a few blocks away from the radio station.

Never even noticed it...

Go Frogs!

Got a pretty good shake last night here in Newport, no damage, but a lot of freaked out tourists

O&G folks would laugh and say no way, not possible.

Non-O&G folks will say without certainty it’s those motherfracking frackers.

Has LisaLT checked in??

 

[LisaLT]

Hi all. I definitely felt the first one on the 4th and was out walking my dog for the second one, which I didn’t really feel. Maybe being on the beach is the best place to be in that situation lol.

The first one felt like being in a boat. It was a rolling rocking sensation. Very weird feeling.

I would guess there will be more aftershocks throughout the weekend.

Saw this morning on the news there had been over 600 aftershocks. That was by 8:30am. Not sure how that can be accurate, but that’s what was reported.

I’m guessing all seismic activity is measurable even if it is minimal. Since I’m over 100 miles from the epicenter it would have to be a large aftershock for me to feel it out here where I am.
