I have been in two big quakes when I lived in So Cal. When the dogs start barking in chorus, its a good sign the shaking will soon follow.
Has anyone here been in a 6 or above? It sounds like a freight train coming from the distance, then its right in your head, and the shaking starts. And about the time you realize what happened, its over. You either made it or you didn't. Its the aftershocks that fuck with you. |

another 3, just when it looks like it is quieting dwon (14 minutes, lol).
I swear I am felling something here, small, but a rolling motion every now and then, but nothing showing up that should cause that, unless its my imagination. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 772923
One of those small rolling motions moved my desk this morning but nothing came up on usgs,looked on a Texas local map(Hockley station)showed rolling activity. |

Death valley fault? [ link to education.usgs.gov]
The only thing really up there, besides Mammoth ski and recreation area, is a big ass supervolcano. The fault lines may or may not add to anything, but if this sucker should blow, and it, like yellowstone, is overdue, it would take out a good portion of california, Arizona, and Nevada

More earthquakes shake California's Owens Valley
(10-02) 20:15 PDT LONE PINE, Calif. (AP) --
Earthquakes up to magnitude 5.2 struck Friday evening in a remote area of eastern California that was been shaken by a sequence of temblors a day earlier.
Inyo County sheriff's dispatcher Carol Drew said no damage or injuries were reported, but the department received several calls about the quakes.
The quakes' epicenters were just southeast of the town of Lone Pine in the arid Owens Valley below the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada, about 180 miles north of Los Angeles.
"It's a very robust sequence," said California Institute of Technology seismologist Anthony Guarino.
The 5.2 quake occurred at 6:15 p.m. at a very shallow depth and was preceded by tremors of 4.7 and 4.9 in a six-minute span, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
Guarino said most California quakes are six to 10 miles deep, but the biggest quake was centered less than a kilometer beneath the earth's surface, according to the U.S. Geological Survey's measurements.
This means more intense shaking felt over a wider area and maybe even a visible crack in the ground, he said.
The sequence was followed by more than a dozen smaller quakes including three in the magnitude-4 range.
About 3 a.m. Thursday, a magnitude-5 earthquake occurred in the same area. Dozens of mostly tiny aftershocks have followed. A magnitude 5 quake is capable of causing considerable damage.
Guarino said the tremors were likely on a strike-slip fault, with two blocks of earth sliding past each other.
The Owens Valley is a long, narrow valley lying between the towering peaks of the Sierra that rise abruptly on the west and the Inyo Mountains on the east. It is sparsely populated except for string small cities and towns along U.S. 395, a major route between Southern California and Sierra destinations.
In 1872, the town of Lone Pine was leveled by an earthquake which measured about magnitude 7.6 and was felt as far away as San Diego.
Naturalist John Muir was in Yosemite Valley at the time and wrote about seeing huge pieces of granite crashing down the mountains into talus piles beneath steep hillsides.
Lone Pine currently has 1,600 residents.

I was in a 2nd story of a wood apartment building during the Sylmar quake (6.2). I tried to grab the door handle to get out, but it was moving two feet side to side. I worked at a photo lab in Burbank, and we had a 40' long chemical tank, about 5' high, made of stainless and encassed in cement. The chemicals had all shaken out of that tank. |
