Finally after 3 years, I get to feel an EARTHQUAKE

Been back in LA for about 3 years now and what earthquakes have happened, never felt them, this morning , there was one that woke me up.
Nice little shaker. 4.7 with the center around Westwood. Nothing broke, my girl just went back to sleep, I'm making coffee.
I feel like I'm officially back in LA now, LOL

think about that

I've felt one only once. Was down in Acapulco about 20 years ago, just a 10 second tremor in the early morning that shook enough that the beds in the hotel all moved about a foot out from the walls. Nothing major, but it freaked me out some.

Being as I'm a flatlander from the frozen Canadian tundra I've never felt the ground shake more than that vibration created when a large truck rolls by on the street. Something that causes tall buildings to sway... well once is plenty enough for this cat.

Control freaks living in fault zones must really get tweaked by this. No matter how 'in control' you think you are in your life, the planet let's you know every so often that... you aren't.

That was tiny. Earthquakes aren't earthquakes unless buildings and bridges fall down.

I've been thru some big ones during my life, I missed the Northridge earthquake by just a couple months by moving to Northern California. I was there for a while raising my daughter.
This was nothing to scare anyone, just kinda waited to see if it got bigger.

A 6.9 quake was recorded last week 50 miles west of Eureka in NorCal. Did you feel that one?

Update, it was 2 miles from Encino in the Santa Monica Mountains about 5 miles deep and it was 4.4 in magnitude
Pretty close to where I live in Van Nuys

We did not.

If a 6.9 hits in SoCal near where it did this morning it would be a huge issue.

I was in the Bay Area for the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. I was sixty miles away from it, and you couldn't be inside - Everything was falling off of shelves. But it wasn't the earthquake itself that was the problem, but the aftermath - no power for three days. No phone, no tv, no news about what was happening.

I'd just woken up when it hit...pretty close to me too. I estimated it was a 5.0 but it was only 4.4. It's been years since we had a good shake like that, so I guess I"m out of practice.
