There was an aftershock of 2.5 five minutes after the initial quake and a 3.1 six minutes after the initial quake. It's rockin and rollin out there. :D

I thought someone drove a truck into my apartment building. The shaking was pretty substantial. Redondo Beach here.

Didn't feel it up here, but when the Sacramento news station mentioned it, at the same time they were talking about the heat wave...they called it "Shake and Bake." :roll:

Felt it in Santa Monica last night while we were curled up on the couch.

Makes me want to revisit some "what to do in the event of an earthquake" info...
