It was felt in Las Vegas. 5.8 is a pretty significant jolt...that's the first real quake I've felt since we moved here two years ago! posted by

http://earthquake.usgs.gov/... Good source for future reference. Also, they ask for input from all who felt it. posted by

Okay, I don't know how to read a table of seismic events. I was so wrong. What I saw first was the initial report of the earthquake which was from Pomona. Due to the distance from the epicenter, the intensity felt was that of a 3.8. The closest report was Chino Hills which, due to being almost at the center, was a magnitude. 5.4. Now, I have publically appologized for my stupidity. Please forgive me. I promise not to do it again. Thank you. posted by

I was there for the one that took out the old town of Tehachapi. First thing I think of now is the Isabella Dam. No doubt in my mind these are reminders the predicted Big One is going to hit any time. posted by

Sam, I prefer to think these little ones are letting off pressure from the "big one." :) posted by
