Had a 5.6 hit tonight 11 miles from my home. Shake Rattle and Roll !!!!
It rumbled them slammed, and then rolled for 30 seconds. Shit fell off my dresser

It was located just on the other side of Mt Hamilton. WOO-HOO!!! it was felt all over most of northern Ca. It was felt over a 50 mile + circle.

So, to you Californians is that considered a big earthquake, or just a minor one? I mean I know to me it would be a big one, but don't earthquakes happen all the time there?

Hope all is well there.

Oh were all Ok, Thank you !

It was a medium shaker, but the Epi was so close to my home that it really didn't matter

it was big enough to throw you out of bed

Kind of makes you feel like your on a water bed < a nice back and forth ride > after the initial slam from the quake

If you guys see the pics of the Epi on TV I live 7 miles from that dot

I've never experienced that, but I imagine it would be pretty surreal.

i am always asleep when they happen. so when i am woken up by them i think of the dumbest things. last time we had one that was about 3.0 and i thought my roommate was having a party an going crazy and didn't invite me.....it takes me a few to become coherent in the AM..
