Shook my house over here in North CoCo County for about 10 seconds. Felt like a sustained 3.0 on the Richter.
Been through a lot of earthquakes through my lifetime in California. Some of the biggest I never even felt. Sometimes it just makes your lamps sway a little. One time a 3.2 early in the morning felt like someone lifted the corner of the house 6 inches and let go. Sometimes they gently rock, other times they jolt.
Still waiting for the big one. Apparently nothing to see here. Back to work.
That sounds about right. Considering the inverse square law of wave propagation and my distance from the epicenter my guesstimate of 3.0 was about right.
For such a 'moderate' quake, it really shook up a lot of areas with comparable strength quite a distance from the epicenter. Dark dots are 4, light dots are 3, triangles are 2. If it had been a 5.5 or larger, it would really have fucked up a lot of stuff. My dorm rooms the first two years at Berzerkeley were right over the Hayward fault.

That's all the really matters!

Aren't you a fugitive from justice?
According to Biden, most of us on here are. We just haven't been rounded up yet.
Anyone feel it?
Yes, it was a pretty good jolt in Tri Valley. Usually, when they are that strong, a piece of wood falls off the house somewhere.
The Hayward Fault jostles.
Outlaw clearly.
What did you study there
A little 3.3 bump over here in the Delta.
