EARTHQUAKE, on the San Andreas, 5.9 or 6.0 magnitude. Only 1.1 km deep located in Parkfield, CA, and there are ton of aftershocks. We felt it really good here on the Central Coast. Who else felt it?

Just hit the SCEC site, looks like a good sequence going on up there. Stay safe!
Parkfield was overdue anyway, scientists are probably having a field day up there.

Felt it here in CAL POLy San luis obispo, very light, but it lasted a few minutes (aftershocks were goin in and out) ironically I was in my geology class, got my teacher all excited...hope nobody was hurt....
I've been living in CA for 4 years and still have not felt an earthquake. I feel cheated! I live in Sacto now, so unlikely I'll get to feel one.
No effects here as much as I can tell. I do live rather close to train tracks though, so any rumbles would likely have been dismissed as a passing train.
Upgrades: PA 3" Body Lift, Powertrax No-Slip rear, Detroit ezLocker front, Fabtech/Fox front, Wheeler's AALs, TC Front Diff Drop, 16 x 8 MB Wheels, 285/75R16 Goodyear Wrangler MT/Rs, Pioneer Head Unit, Infiniti Reference speakers [front and rear], 150 W bridged amp to bandpass enclosure, 6 CD changer with IR remote, iPod mini and xm hardwired into stereo, Toyota drop in bedliner, and Tonneau cover
I felt an aftershock today during school... but I was on the third level of the building, so the swaying was definetly amplified.

I was there! I manage a school portrait business and we had picture day scheduled at Parkfield School and Shandon Elementary School. I was at Shandon. 11 miles from the epicenter. Big bang and shake then about 15 seconds of roll. Amazing how fast 20 kindergarteners hit the floor and got under cafeteria tables. Well trained!
My photographer in Parkfield was a little unlucky - he had just finished photographing all 14 students at the school, it's one of the last 1 room schoolhouses in California and the camera was flipped over on its tripod and hit the ground - $15,000 camera is trash now...good thing I lease them!
I've lived in California for 10 years and had never been near a big earthquake - I can check that off my list now!
Our home in Reseda was less than 1/4 mile from the epicenter of the 1994 Northridge quake. Trust me, be grateful you weren't near the quake. It's a ride one never forgets especially when it's dark.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to siphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????
If your engine doesn't consume ANY oil it will seize???
Some people should not be allowed access to tools without books!!!
lol ..that northridge shaker blewwwww...i used a lite-brite for a flashlight..and felt a NICE jolt out here in SCV..its pretty nifty being on the street at 1 am when a quake hits and the street just rolls..now thats NIFTY
Dang, just checked the SCEC site and Parkfield is still rocking and rolling...well, better a lot of small quakes releasing energy than one huge one...

just wait for mt st helens to blow..hurricanes to hit in florida..and a bigger quake out closer to LA
..i heard a lady on the radio from the earth something or other research team..she basically said that the parkfield earthquake triggered the second quake further south..and that those quakes are getting increasingly larger in magnitude..all thise today predicts a BIGGER one farther south (LA area) within the next few weeks
That russian scientist who predicted one on the San Andreas around Palm Springs by september 6th wasn't too far off I guess. I would much rather had earthquakes that hurricanes IMO. That is the natural disaster I choose.

i was building and installing some cabinets in one of the stores that collapsed in the paso robles quake about a week before it happened (the one where the 2 women died). the owners daughter is a friend of mine at cal poly SLO so that's how i got the job... scary the way things work out some times.
