It seems like you guys down along coastal San Diego have felt it the most so far. Just a little rolling here in Huntington Beach

No wonder you guys in SD felt it so well.

[grtwythunter]

Hope Karstic&#39;s info is wrong. I&#39;m sitting in Lancaster and didn&#39;t feel a darn thing.

That&#39;s affirmative Scott. The first quake reports are generated automatically by a computer, then they get reviewed by a seismologist. It seems that the computer spit out the wrong answer.

I thought that was ESS getting loose w/ himself again. He does that from time to time. He puts on an old women’s gymnastics video, puts on some comfortable loose fitting shorts, lights a few candles, plops down on the sofa w/ a bottle of lotion and goes at it. He says it relives his stress.

Anyhoo – Glad it know it was just an earthquake.

There&#39;s a visual we didn&#39;t need.

Whew!!!!! I was counting empty beer bottles trying to figure out how I missed all the shaking.

Didn&#39;t feel a thing in my work truck in Pomona. I had just hopped in too.

[Grey Taylor]

I definately felt it in Santa Ana. Funny thing is, other people in the same office and just a few feet from me didn&#39;t feel a thing. To me there were no ifs, ands, or buts, I felt it no problem.

Guy

[mouthcallinmatt1]

I felt it. I was talking to a client about 30 miles from where I&#39;m at and he said simultaneously with the quake "did you feel that?". He thought his dog ran into his chair and when he went to yell at him, he wasn&#39;t there.

We had 2 first-timers here in our office. The guy thought it was cool, the girl started crying. I guess it just affects people differently. Personally, I think they are fun.

[pbrdog]

Hey, while it happened for all of the 5 seconds, it was sunny and warm. No hail damage, crop damage, and didn&#39;t have to go in the basement. Business as usual. I even took the dog for a walk afterward.

[spectr17]

Ah, just a little shaker. The first time I saw a concrete pad move like liquid I about lost it.

Oh yeah, Landers turned my yard into jello.

Best quake was up in Mammoth about 7 years ago. I was tubing on Lake Crowley with my father in-law when our tubes just burbed straight up. Not a roller like from a boat wake. We both had that "what the heck" look on our faces when we saw the worm dippers on shore running in a panic. Found out later it was a 5+ centered about 5 miles away.

Worst part was the fish bite shut off for the rest of the day http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-crying-blue.gif

We&#39;ve got some CalTech sensors up near one of our commo sites. One day I was bored and wondered what clamping my jumper cables onto the sensor wires would do. http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-devil.gif There is also some computers in our building. Wonder what the head tech guy would do if we inserted a 8.0 quake on a floppy?

I was in Big Bear for the Big Bears/Landers quakes and it was a trip to look down the street during an earthquake and watch the surface waves roll the asphalt like a swell in the ocean.

[foulshot]

I didn&#39;t feel a thing as I was sitting at the office(about 5 miles from downtown SD).

Heard the local Siesmo guy on the news saying that fault is due for a 7+ anytime soon. I might feel that one! http://www.jesseshunting.com/forums/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smiley-hair-raisin-blue.gif

[Hunter29]

I felt it..was working at my desk when the floor started bouncing and I could hear the parts racks rattling. Actually was kinda fun!
