just felt it down here in san diego

edit: usgs reporting it as an early 5.0

1 minute elapses & we have confirmation, epicenter, magnitude.

Fuck you CNN, MSNBC, Fox. 😛
 
Meh. 5.0 earthquakes in Cali are nothing. I don't get out of bed for anything less than a 6.3 AND if I'm close to the epicenter.

California about to fall in?

*evil laugh*

I hope not. I want it to happen during daylight so that there's good video.

:thumbsup:

CA will never "fall in." It will break away, though.

Either way, as long as it leaves it's all good.

Yep and have the US economy fall even farther than it already has. good luck to you guys.

Any news worth reporting, gets reported here at ATOT.

 
I was at the gym sitting at a machine and felt a shake as if someone bumped into my machine, although no one was there. I glanced at the window and saw it still shaking. Looked around the gym and nobody else seemed to notice anything.
 
I want to be at the computer when a big one hits, and hopefully be able to at least post "EARTHQUAKE" lol
 
Our family from Costa Rica called this afternoon, 6.2 about 20 miles from their house 🙁 Scary shit.

No it won't.

The plate is subducting, essentially pushing. If anything, it will "merge".. lol
